> /*Coding and decoding borders at the dawn of the 21st century*/ is an 
> event encompassing art, research and practice. Combining *an 
> exhibition and an international conference*, it will host, *at the 
> Faculty of Architecture and the Faculty of Philosophy and Social 
> Sciences of the Université Libre de Bruxelles, and at the Headquarters 
> of the World Customs Organization (WCO)*, researchers, artists and 
> experts who will discuss the growing technologization of controls of 
> persons, goods or capital which cross borders. As with the previous 
> events organized by the antiAtlas of Borders, this 
> conference/exhibition truly breaks away from compartmentalization of 
> the fields of knowledge, creation and practice. By offering different 
> levels of lecture and of participation, it opens up beyond academic, 
> political and professional circles to reach the public at large.
>
> The call for projects is for the exhibition which will be held from 13 
> April to 31 May at the Espace Architecture La Cambre Horta on the 
> Flagey campus of the Université Libre de Bruxelles.

> 1rst exhibition at the Musée des Tapisseries

> The exhibition curators and the Scientific and Artistic Committee are 
> seeking *diverse works (net.art, installations, videos, documentaries, 
> video games, plastic arts, etc.) that reflect the processes related to 
> the technologization of border controls*, whether relating to persons, 
> goods or capital. For the past 20 years, many stakeholders 
> (researchers, journalists, NGO workers and activists, elected 
> politicians, employees of national administrations and international 
> organizations, etc.) have been observing, documenting, studying and at 
> times condemning the technologization of border controls. Alongside 
> the militarization of borders, traditional control systems are now 
> complemented by the deployment at state borders of increasingly 
> sophisticated technologies (biometrics, robots, walls, integrated 
> surveillance systems, data mining, big data, etc.) to control 
> movements of population groups, goods, capital and information. 
> Analysts of this intensive deployment of technology generally tend to 
> look at the objects of control separately: persons, goods and capital. 
> Yet we should also look into the question of the possible movement and 
> transfer of knowledge and techniques from one of these objects to 
> another. Any analysis of border controls, whatever the object, needs 
> to look at the same questions, namely efficiency, “fraud” and diversion.
