Club Transmediale
But a transmediale would ne be perfect without the ClubTransmediale CTM.11. Extended Club Nights at Berghain and Maria am Ostbahnhof on the weekend of February 4–6 present an update on affairs in the ever-expanding club music universe. There’s a special focus on the diverse and continually shifting styles derived from the exploded genres of dubstep, grime and UK funky. Catch up with the latest developments on the UK scene around mastermind Kode9 at the big Hyperdub night at Berghain on Friday 4.2, when Darkstar, King Midas Sound, Ikonika, Cooly G and others among the label’s advance guard will test the membranes of Berlin’s premium sound system. Another special highlight is the Modeselektion night scheduled for Saturday, 5.2 in Maria am Ostbahnhof, compiled by Berlin’s own home-grown heroes of the bass line, Modeselektor, who invited along some of their talented cronies: the video collective Pfadfinderei, Jackmaster, Ben UFO, Cosmin TRG and Siriusmo. Other highlights include a Perlon night at Panorama Bar, club concerts by Swedish techno-minimalists The Field, French duo Zombie Zombie, and the young Cologne trio, MIT, who fuse Kraftwerk-inspired conceptual electronica with the cold wave aesthetics of Joy Division – and will present their latest album at the festival.

Zum 25. Jubiläum arbeitet die transmediale fleißig daran in/kompatibel zu sein. Denn so lautet das Motto der diesjährigen transmediale 2012, die vom 31. Januar bis zum 05. Februar im Berliner Haus der Kulturen der Welt im Tiergarten stattfindet. Das Thema in/kompatibel beschäftigt sich mit der künstlerischen Vorstellung der Netzwerkkultur. Wie wir ja alle wissen ist dort alles miteinander vernetzt, jedoch passt nicht immer alles zusammen oder funktioniert einwandfrei miteinander. Zudem gibt es wieder ein vielfältiges und internationales Programm. Es wird ein zweitägiges Symposium zu diesem Thema geben, eine betreute Ausstellung, ein umfangreiches Videoprogramm als auch verschiedene Performances, wie zum Beispiel die legendäre Joshua Light Show. Ein Highlight der transmediale 2012 wird die reSource for transmedial culture Projektplattform sein. Dahinter verbirgt sich ein experimentelles Programm an Workshops, offenen Diskussionsrunden und Interventionen.
Auch in diesem Jahr wird wieder mit der CTM.12 – SPECTRAL in einem umfangreichen Club und Konzertprogramm, vom 27. Januar bis 19. Februar, die transmediale12 musikalisch und mit Ausstellungen begleitet. Die Spielorte in Kreuzberg und Friedrichshain werden im Hau, Berghain, Kater Holzig, Horst Krzbrg., Kunstraum Kreuzberg/ Bethanien, Passionskirche und im Gretchen sein.
