The Truth About Consuela, essay on Philip Roth
This article looks at the semantic polarities fear and courage, good and evil, in the work of Phillip Roth. It looks at a number of Roth's novels, in particular, Nemesis and The Dying Animal, Exit Ghost and The Humbling, suggesting how societies received ideas of what is morally acceptable contrast with the protagonist's need for a freedom, particularly sexual freedom, but also freedom of expression, both of which are seen as transgressive. The article goes on to suggest that while this dynamic remains essentially intact throughout Roth's work, the various elements in it shift with the age of the protagonists, and the age of Roth himself
Pixelsex or Cosmic Revelation – how art & science can meet in public space
Tim Otto Roth is known for his large projects in public space linking art & science. In his presentation the German artist and media theorist demonstrates some of his latest projects - among others Cosmic Revelation which changed the KASCADE detector field for cosmic rays at the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology into a giant flashing light field.
The Pixelsex project leads him to the question if the universe might be digital.
