Unutrašnji okoliš konstruiran je isključivo od zvučnog materijala, reproduciranog u kontroliranim uvjetima sfere, dok su ostali podražaji svedeni na minimum. Sfera istovremeno služi kao akustična sabirnica i točka mijenjanja postojećih omjera: emocija minijaturnog zvuka je pojačana i intimna, projicirana prema unutra, smanjena u veličini. Slušatelj se nalazi u točki fokusa u kojoj su sklapanje unutrašnje slike, te protok unutrašnjeg i vanjskog (vremena) eksponirani. Ovaj umjetnički rad, čiji je dio nastao kao završni rad diplomskog studija Filma i videa Hrvoja Pelicarića, prirodan je slijed njegovog cjeloživotnog posvećenog bavljenja fenomenom zvuka i ponašanjem zvuka u različitim okruženjima. Tema ovog istraživanja je vrijeme koje je prisutno u različitim umjetničkim medijima - njegov karakter, estetika i logika, odnos prema "realnom" vremenu, te različite kreativne strategije upotrebljene u umjetničkom radu, direktno ili indirektno vezane uz pojam vremena. Već duži period Pelicarić je zainteresiran za percepciju vremena te karakter i prirodu mehanizama pomoću kojih funkcionira i teče, protječe. Direktan poticaj za ovo istraživanje dobio je proučavajući rad američkog umjetnika Gary Hilla . koji je pokazao da ima jedinstven uvid o prirodi unutrašnjeg vremena video medija - kroz rad sa tekstom, slikom, zvukom, prostorom. Poveznica je bila priroda vremena prisutna u Hillovim radovima, koja po svom tretmanu nalikuje japanskom Noh teatru kojeg je koncipirao Zeami Motokiyo (1363.-1443.) i njegovom tretiranju vremena po konceptu Ma. Koncept Ma je zapravo prostorno-vremenski koncept originalno iz Kine, zaživio je u japanskoj kulturi i postao sveprisutan; od svakodnevnog govornog jezika, kazališta, dizajna i arhitekture, filma. Može objašnjavati prostor, vrijeme ili prostor-vrijeme; u svakom slučaju najvažniji je ritam, te prisutnost ili neprisutnost nečega; može biti opisan i kao pauza, praznina ili interval; govori o tišini u opoziciji prema zvuku, ili manjku u odnosu na višak. U zapadnoj civilizaciji ovaj koncept je definitivno nedovoljno prisutan, a grane u kojima je donekle prisutan su arhitektura/dizajn i filmska umjetnost. U svom tekstu “Intervali (Ma) u prostoru i vremenu: osnove za religijsko-estetsku paradigmu u Japanu“, autor Richard B. Pilgrim kaže: pojam Ma u suštini predstavlja „interval“ između dvije (ili više) prostorne ili temporalne stvari i događaja. Prema tome, ne koristi se samo u složenicama koje sugeriraju mjerenje nego nosi značenja kao što su praznina, otvor, međuprostor, vrijeme između, itd. Prostorija se na primjer može nazivati Ma, pošto se referira na prostor između zidova; stanka u glazbi je također Ma, pošto je pauza između nota ili tonova. Prirodno nastavljajući istraživanje, koje je započeo i u predhodnim umjetničkim projektima, Prostor (plus-minus), u kojem se bavio svijesti o prostoru i prisutnosti postava u prostoru, te 1:8, u kojem je fokus bio na odnosu veličine / količine okolnog zvuka prisutnog u prostoru prema reproduciranom minijaturnom zvuku, u ovom radu Pelicarić ulazi u sferu odnosa vremena i prostora, naravno opet kroz medij zvuka. Njegova Smanjena točka protoka (za sferu, 8 ear-piece zvučnika i Umwelt) uvodi nas u zanimljivo i nepoznato okruženje, lišeno vanjskih zvukova čime akcelerira upravo neke zvukove koje inače ne čujemo jer kupola u kojoj se nalazimo sabire zvuk i kreira svojevrsni Umwelt: "self-centered world", "okoliš", "okruženje", te nas time Pelicarić stavlja u poziciju da zajedno s njim testiramo protok vremena, vlastitu prisutnost u vremenu te odnos vremena i prostora kroz zvuk. Hrvoje Pelicarić, oblikovatelj zvuka, glazbenik, producent i multimedijalni umjetnik, rođen je u Splitu 23.4.1974. Diplomirao tonsku tehniku na School of audio engineering u Rotterdamu 2001. godine, preddiplomski studij Filma i Videa (2014.), te diplomski studij smjera Medijska umjetnost na Umjetničkoj akademiji u Splitu, 2017.

ENG _________________________ NMG@PRAKTIKA Hrvoje Pelicarić: Scaled-down flux point (for sphere, 8 ear-piece loudspeakers and Umwelt) Opening: Thursday, 9th November 2017 at 8 p.m. 9th – 13th November 2017 NMG@PRAKTIKA Dom mladih Ulica slobode 28, Split Scaled-down flux point is an 8-channel audio-spatial installation which consists of a sphere designed for the listener’s head, equipped with a miniature multichannel sound system. The interior is designed strictly out of audio material, reproduced in controlled conditions of the sphere, while the rest of the stimuli are reduced to a minimum. The sphere is simultaneously a point of acoustic collecting and transformation of existing ratios: the emotion of miniature sound is expanded and intimate, projected inwards, and reduced in size. The listener is in focus where the assembling of the inner image, as well as the flow of the inward and outward (time) are exposed. This piece, which was originally part of a graduate thesis at the Film & Video department, is a natural continuation of Hrvoje Pelicarić’s lifelong dedication to the phenomenon of sound and sound behavior in different environments. This research deals with time that is present in different artistic media – its character, aesthetic and logic, relationship toward “real” time, and different creative strategies used in the work, directly or indirectly related to the notion of time. For quite some time now, Pelicarić has been interested in the perception of time and the character and the nature of the mechanisms in which it functions and passes. Studying the work by the American artist Gary Hill . directly influenced this work. Hill proved to have a unique insight into the nature of inner time of the video medium – through the work with text, image, sound, and space. The link was the nature of time present in Hill’s work, which in their treatment resemble the Japanese Noh theater, popularized by Zeami Motokiyo (1363.-1443.), and his treatment of time according to the Ma concept. The Ma concept is actually a time-space concept originally from China which flourished in Japanese culture and became omnipresent; from everyday language, theater, design and architecture, film. It can explain space, time or space-time; in any case rhythm is most important, and presence or absence of something; it can also be described as a pause, void or interval; it speaks of silence in opposition to sound, or shortage in relation to surplus. In Western civilization this concept is definitely not present enough, and the fields in which it is somewhat present are architecture/design and film. In his text titled "Intervals (Ma) in space and time: foundations for religio-aesthetic paradigm in Japan", the author Richard B. Pilgrim states: The word Ma basically means an "interval" between two (or more) spatial or temporal things and events. Thus it is not only used in compounds to suggest measurement but carries meanings such as gap, opening, space between, time between, and so forth. A room is called Ma, for example, as it refers to the space between the walls; a rest in music is also Ma as the pause between the notes or sounds . Naturally continuing the research started in previous works titled Space (plus-minus) – in which he dealt with consciousness of space and the presence in exhibition space – and 1:8, in which the focus was placed on the relation of size/quantity of the surrounding sound present in space opposed to the reproduced miniature sound, Pelicarić enters the sphere of the relation of time and space with this work, naturally once again through the medium of sound. His Scaled-down flux point (for sphere, 8 ear-piece loudspeakers and Umwelt) guides us into an interesting and foreign environment, stripped from outside noises, which accelerate certain sounds which we do not normally hear because the sphere collects sounds and creates a certain Umwelt: “self-centered world”, “environment”, “surrounding”, in which Pelicarić places us to together test the passing of time, our own presence in time and the relation between time and space through sound. Hrvoje Pelicarić is a musician, producer and multimedia artist born 23rd of April 1974 in Split. He graduated sound engineering at the School of audio engineering in Rotterdam in 2001, with a BA in Film & Video (2014) and MA in Media art at the Arts Academy in Split (2017).

O NMG / ABOUT NMG NMG - Novomedijska galerija međunarodna je kustoska platforma usmjerena na istraživačke projekte vezane uz problematike aktivnog sudjelovanja u suvremenom društvu koji rezultiraju kustoskim konceptima, intermedijskim događanjima, međunarodnim novomedijskim suradnjama te kreiranjem novih medijskih projekata. Unutar platforme realizira se program NMG@PRAKTIKA . Ciklus je to samostalnih izložbi mladih umjetnika iz Hrvatske i inozemstva u Galeriji Praktika u Domu mladih u Splitu. Ovo je peta godina ciklusa kroz koji je dosad realizirano više od trideset samostalnih i skupnih izložbi mladih umjetnika. Kroz nove medije i eksperimentiranje s različitim formama umjetničkog izražaja izložbe problematiziraju aktualne teme suvremenog društva. Ovaj ciklus izložbi tako ne samo da pruža uvid u najnovije umjetničke prakse, već i odabirom autora aktivno sudjeluje u pozicioniranju suvremene umjetnosti kao kritičkog faktora naspram društvene stvarnosti. NMG - New media gallery is an international curatorial platform focused on research projects related to the issues of active participation in a contemporary society which result with the curatorial concepts, inter-media events, international new media collaborations and creating new media projects. NMG@PRAKTIKA is a program within the platform. A cycle of exhibitions of independent young artists from Croatia and abroad are organized in Gallery Praktika at Youth Centre in Split. This is the fifth cycle through which has so far been realized more than thirty solo and group exhibitions of young artists. Through the new media and experimenting with different forms of artistic expression exhibitions discuss the current issues of contemporary society. This cycle of exhibitions so not only provides insight into the recent art practice, but also, by selecting the authors it actively participates in the positioning of contemporary art as a critical factor against social reality.
