THE GROUP "HOTEL NUCLEAR" IS GLAD TO SHOW ITS OWN AUDIO-VISUAL MATERIAL IN THE HOPE OF STIMULATING YOUR INTEREST.
"H.N." COMES INTO BEING AS A FORM OF ENTERTAINMENT. ITS EYE IS FOCUSED ON MUTATION AND MUTILATIONS OF THE LANDSCAPE OF THE MEDIA AND FEELS THE ENDLESSDESIRE TO EXPLORE THE EVOLUTION OF THE SEARCH FOR A VISUAL AND SOUND IMMAGINARY IN ITS DEEPEST FORM.
"H.N." IS PART OF "ARTO-ZAT" GROUP, COMPOSED OF ARTISTS, MUSICIANS, VIDEOMAKERS, IT IS OPEN-MINDED TOWARDS THE MOST UNUSUAL AND EXTREME FORMS OF ART AND HAS NO LIMITS. "ARTO-ZAT" IS A CULTURAL ASSOCIATION WHICH IS CONCERNED WITH PROMOTIONS OF ARTISTICAL RESEARCH.
IT IS INCREASINGLY DIFFICULT TO ASCERTAIN THE BOUNDARIES OF EXPERIMENTATION, ESPECIALLY WHEN RULES AND CONVENTIONS ARE NOT ACCEPTED, AND MORE THAN ANYTHING ELSE WHEN ONE ATTEMPTS TO GO BEYOND THE DICHOTOMY ORDER/DISORDER. THE MAIN THEMES OF OUR RESEARCH ARE THE ANALISYS AND THE CRITICISM OF THE SURROUNDING REALITY, AND OF THE DISCOMFORT, THE INCONVENIENCE AND THE APPREHENSION OFTEN INCLUDED IN IT; SINCE THE BEGINNING OF '70 IT WAS NECESSARY TO EMPLOY NEW INSTRUMENTS AND SEVERAL TECHNIQUES IN ORDER TO DESCRIBE THESE NEEDS AND REALITIES.
OFTEN THE MOST ACCESSIBLE INFORMATION DEALS WITH CONCEPTS IDEAS AND GROUNDS IN A SUPERFICIAL WAY, IT REDUCES ITS COMPLEXITY AND UNDERLINES MOSTLY HISTORICAL STEPS. FEW PUBBLICATIONS ARE AVAILABLE TO THOSE WHO WANT TO APPROACH THESE THEME. IT IS NECESSARY TO TURN THE ATTENTION TO OTHERS SYSTEM OF INFORMATION, THAT ARE EASIER AND MORE FUNCTIONAL, AND AT THE SAME TIME IT IS NECESSARY TO LOCATE SUITABLE VIRTUAL AND PHISYCAL PLACES FOR ACTION AND CONTACT. EXCHANGE AND COHESION HAVE GIVEN LIFE TO PROJECTS. THESE CONCRETE PROJECTS ARE SPREADING, AND SHOW THAT THIS KIND OF SEARCH IS ACTIVE. THE EVOLUTION IN THE RESEARCH HAS PRODUCED SITUATIONS, AND SPIN-OFF PROJECTS, IT HAS CREATED CONSIDERABLY DIFFERENT PRODUCTS.
THE POSSIBILITY TO DECONTEXTUALIZE THE EXPERIMENTATION HAS INCREASED EXTREMELY, AND THOSE WHO ARE AWARE OF WHAT IS BEING PRODUCED AT THE MOMENT WILL RECOGNIZED THIS.
WE ARE ABLE TO AFFIRM THAT THESE EXPERIMENTAL PROJECTS, DESTINED TO BE A SUBGROUP OF HISTORICAL GROUP, HAVE NOT PROGRESSIVELY RUN OUT, BUT INSTEAD THEY HAVE BURST PARADOXICALLY INTO NEW HORIZONS, IN AN ENDELSS FERMENT.
