Abstract

Projekt Atol serves as the institutional, financial and logistics support frame for several projects and initiatives. It was initially a framework for visual art works, performances and situations. Then in 1994 the project Makrolab was developed, an ongoing mobile laboratory set-up for open and integral research and the common work of artists, scientists and tactical media workers in the fields of telecommunications, migrations research, weather and climate. First set up in 1997 during the Documenta X exhibition in Kassel, Germany, it subsequently operated in Western Australia (Rottnest Island), Slovenia (Veliki Kras), in the Scotish Highlands (Atholl Estates) on the island of Campalto (Isola di Campalto), and (as part of the 2003 Biennale di Venezia art exhibition and the TEMPUS PHARE CBC Interreg IIIA programme) in the Venice Lagoon. During 2007-08, the International Polar Year, the Makrolab project will produce installations in Antarctica and Nunavut. This mission involves a conceptual and practical linkage of both polar regions. In this transnational spirit, Makrolab will be managed by I-TASC, the Interpolar Transnational Ars Science Constellation - cf http://www.i-tasc.org.

Projekt Atol's other projects in the field of technology and communications research include the Resolution series projects, the Trust-System series projects, the Insular technologies initiative, the Wardenclyffe series projects, the Signal-Sever! series of performances, the Egoritmi-Egorhythms performances, the Ladomir-faktura series of situations, the Slovene Space Agency in Constitution initiative, the Rx-tx music label and the re-lax series of events. Project Atol collaborates with the Yuri Gagarin Cosmonaut Training Centre in Moscow and co-ordinated seven parabolic flights in microgravity for different artistic projects between 1999 and 2003, the first of these involving the Noordung Cosmokinetic Cabinet (1999); Projekt Atol subsequently produced three other Noordung Cosmokinetic Cabinet performance events prior to 2003. In 2001, together with the Baterija group of architects. it co-ordinated and lead the production of the mobile media lab Transhub, realised as Mobilatorij for the Mobitel d d company and managed by Ljudmila, Kiberpipa and Mobitel d d. In recent years Project Atol Productions have also been presented at the Johannesburg Biennale, at the third Manifesta European Biennial of Contemporary Art in Ljubljana (2000), at the Gwangju Biennale, ISEA, at Ars Electronica (the 'Polar' project by Marko Peljhan and Carsten Nicolai won the Golden Nika Prix in 2001) and at other venues around the world. Project Atol Institute is partner to the following initiatives: world-information.org (WIO), the MIR network (Arts Catalyst, Leonardo/Olats, V2, Multimedia Complex of Actual Arts), the KRIZ network, Acoustic Space Lab, and AUVSI.
