The dependence on reality devotes them to subvert that kind of reality which is produced through means of media-technology with the help of artistic strategies. They celebrate technical defects, play with the almost possible and commit themselves to nonsense seeking to multiply reality by means of exaggeration, rupture, distance, and ever new diversions. Their favourite means of social commentary and criticism is witty humour; it helps to pinpoint contradiction, communicate and challenge social understandings of technology and reality in a digital culture. The conference investigated the longing for ever more real world and understood humour as a positivistic and affirmative approach towards reality.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h6><strong>[Editor, Producer]<a href=\"http:\/\/tmp.nordsued.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/realityaddicts_bl-1.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignright wp-image-1586 size-thumbnail\" src=\"http:\/\/tmp.nordsued.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/realityaddicts_bl-1-150x150.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" \/><\/a><br \/>\n<\/strong>transmediale.06 \u2013 Reality Addicts<br \/>\nAkademie der K\u00fcnste<br \/>\nBKV, Berlin 2006<br \/>\n68 pages, German\/English<\/h6>\n<hr \/>\n<p><em>Reality Addicts<\/em> sind jene Menschen der hochtechnisierten Welt, die sich nicht mit der Abgeschlossenheit des Multimedia zufrieden geben; sie verlangen mehr als das: der reale Mensch, Bild und Wort, Kultur und Natur fesseln sie, sodass sie es sich zur Aufgabe gemacht haben, die durch Medientechnologie erzeugte Wirklichkeit mit k\u00fcnstlerischen Strategien zu unterlaufen, ihre Defekte zu feiern und mit dem beinah M\u00f6glichen zu spielen.
