GLITCH FILM EXPANDED: Refractions
�▲ This far up a Staircase to Nowhere, dimensions are not functioning like they normally do; //?? It feels like my sense of depth of field does not work ; …or maybe here, there is no depth ¿¿???… _____________________________ If there is no depth -Euclidean space disarmed- I am outside of depth and there is no ground – the moment I jump I lose any folds beneath my feet and I will never hit /▦▦▦▦▦▦▦▦▦▦▦▦▦▦▦▦ I will forever be un_falling, and it will never … break .. .
Rosa Menkman [NL]
Rosa Menkman is a Dutch artist and researcher of resolutions.
The journey of her protagonist, the Angel of History—inspired by Paul Klee’s 1920 monoprint, Angelus Novus, and conceptualized by Walter Benjamin in 1940—functions as a foundational framework for her explorations of image processing technologies.
In her written research, Rosa focuses on noise artifacts that result from accidents in both analog and digital media. As a compendium to this research, she published Glitch Moment/um (INC, 2011), a book on the exploitation and popularization of glitch artifacts.
She further explored the politics of image processing in Beyond Resolution (i.R.D., 2020). In this book, Rosa describes how the standardization of resolutions promotes efficiency, order, and functionality, but also involves compromises, resulting in the obfuscation of alternative ways of rendering.
In 2019, Rosa won the Collide Arts at CERN Barcelona award, which inspired her recent research into im/possible images, consolidated in the im/possible images reader (published by the i.R.D. & Lothringer, with support from V2, 2022).
�▲ Ovako daleko u Stubištu za Nigdje, dimenzije ne funkcioniraju kao inače; //?? Čini mi se da moj osjećaj za dubinsku oštrinu ne radi; …ili možda ovdje, nema dubine ¿¿???… _____________________________ Ako nema dubine -razoružani Euklidski prostor- Ja sam izvan dubine i nema tla – u trenutku kada skočim gubim postojeće nabore ispod stopala i nikada neću udariti/▦▦▦▦▦▦▦▦▦▦▦▦▦▦▦▦ Zauvijek ću ne_padati, i nikada se neće … slomiti .. .

Rosa Menkman nizozemska je umjetnica i istraživačica rezolucija.
Putovanje njezina glavnog junaka, anđela povijesti – nadahnuto monoprintom Paula Kleea iz 1920., Angelus Novus, a konceptualizirano od strane Waltera Benjamina 1940. – funkcionira kao temeljni okvir za njezina istraživanja tehnologija obrade slike.
U svom pisanom istraživanju, Rosa se usredotočuje na artefakte šuma koji su rezultat greški u analognim i digitalnim medijima. Kao sažetak svojih istraživanja, objavila je Glitch Moment/um (INC, 2011.), knjigu o iskorištavanju i popularizaciji glitch artefakata.
Dodatno je istražila politiku obrade slike u Beyond Resolution (i.R.D., 2020.). U ovoj knjizi Rosa opisuje kako standardizacija rezolucija promiče učinkovitost, red i funkcionalnost, ali također uključuje kompromise, što rezultira zamagljivanjem alternativnih načina prikazivanja.
Rosa je 2019. osvojila nagradu Collide Arts u CERN-u Barcelona, što je nadahnulo njezino nedavno istraživanje ne/mogućih slika, objedinjeno u im/possible images reader (izdavač i.R.D. & Lothringer, uz potporu V2, 2022.).
