An exhibition about computer code, contemporary
narratives, digital art, minimalism and conceptual art. It is
exploring the different discourses in the social science
(politics, programming or music) to understand the
evolution of language, from Wittgenstein to Casey Reas. It
also expresses the logical purpose of language based in intentionality
for the development, progress and evolution of this human
science based in linguistics and semiotics. In this way, databases and
programming codes are the most sophisticated languages in
evolution. As L. Wittgenstein concluded, the best way to express
an idea, rather than from paragraph, is the sentence. Here begins a way
to think through propositions, closely related to minimalism, where the
phrase as a unitary and essential expression refers to the essence
of computing and programming language. 
Exhibition
will show the research investigation process at CED - MACBA Barcelona
with the documentation of Wittgenstein, Futurism, Art&Language,
Fluxus, Sol Lewitt, John Cage
