The Quickest Via Pavilion - The Wrong Biennale

THE QUICKEST DISTANCE IS NOT ALWAYS VIA A STRAIGHT LINE is an ongoing Pavilion part of the third edition of The Wrong - New Digital Art Biennale, which starts on November 1st 2017, and runs until January 31st 2018.

THE QUICKEST VIA is a public pavilion open to all artists wanting to participate. The Pythagorean theorem only works on two-dimensional surfaces; mathematicians refer to such surfaces as Euclidean geometry (named for Euclid, the 3rd-century B.C. Greek mathematician).

The theorem fails for non-Euclidean geometries, such as spheres and more complex geometries like saddles. Indeed, all the rules learned in school, like parallel lines staying parallel, only refer to Euclidean geometry. In the non-Euclidean universe, parallel lines may actually diverge or converge. According to this the shape of space and time might bend. Thus, this call addresses to artists whose work aims this purpose—within a fast no-straight way—by means involving and/or concerning the concepts of time, language/literature, mathematics, route or its leg.

All works to be submitted must be "internet-friendly" and belong to any digital art modality. THE QUICKEST VIA will host—for the complete period of the biennale—12 selected artworks.

Deadline 15 July 2017
