(Originais Teachy 2024) - Question Medium of Arts

The intersection between art and technology has revolutionized artistic practices, allowing the creation of works that go far beyond paper, screen, or traditional physical space. Contemporary artists often use programming languages, sensors, artificial intelligence, and augmented reality to explore new forms of expression, engagement, and social criticism. A notable example is the installation 'Rain Room', developed by the Random International collective, which uses motion sensors to create an immersive experience where the rain 'stops' around visitors, evoking reflections on interactivity and control. In an interdisciplinary class, 9th-grade students were challenged to create an artistic installation that employed concepts of physics and technology to communicate a message about contemporary society. Considering the objectives of the activity and the resources available at the school, what is the best methodological approach for carrying out the project, taking into account the integration between art, technology, and the physical principles that govern the behavior of materials and the environment?

You know that the arts are very special and each person can feel something different when looking at a painting, listening to music, or watching a dance. For example, a painting of a rainbow can make us think of joy and hope. Now, think about your own painting or drawing. What do you want people to feel or think when they look at your art? Explain what your art could mean to different people.

Folk dances are cultural expressions that involve music, movement, and traditions of a group of people. They can have different purposes, such as telling stories, celebrating events, or simply promoting fun and integration among community members. Research a Brazilian folk dance and describe: a) what is its origin and purpose; b) what are the characteristic movements and steps of this dance; and c) how it contributes to the preservation of cultural traditions and the expression of identity of a group.

In the context of contemporary theater, dramaturgy often intertwines with other forms of artistic expression, such as technology and social issues. Considering a theatrical play that addresses contemporary themes and uses innovative staging elements, such as audiovisual projections and digital interactions, propose and justify how you, as a playwright, would integrate these elements to enrich the narrative and the audience's experience, while maintaining the essence of the theatrical text and avoiding mere 'technologization' of the show. Additionally, provide a critical analysis of how this integration could impact the audience's perception and the reception of the work in the current social and cultural context, considering your personal vision and knowledge acquired throughout your learning and reflection process on contemporary theater.
