Tracks in electr(on)ic fields, gestures transformed into data, codes that set bodies in motion, prescriptions that ask to be interpreted. Pretended or real identities spread like viruses as they are carried across networks by (un)controllable, commercialised and personalised information services, inhabiting borders and embodying rumours.

The interdisciplinary festival Jonctions / Verbindingen is at its tenth edition. On location at La Bellone, Constant proposes a series of reflections on our bodily, psychological and formal relationship to technology. Following four parallel threads, Verbindingen / Jonctions mixes electronic music, free distribution, software creation, playful experimentation, sociological survey, electronic cooking, experimental archiving and techno-performance. What traces do technologies leave on us, and how do we in return leave imprints on that technology? How can we imagine other readings of the codified movements we perform vis-a-vis technology? How do we act around machines, and can we shift away from repetitive strain, to gestures that practice, point and probe?
