Keynote Lecture on the International Graduate Centre for the Study of Culture (GCSC) Justus-Liebig-Universität Gießen, 11th of December 2018.
In this lecture, I present a model of Conceptual Art and Conceptual Music. The core message of this theory is that conceptualism is based on an "isomorphism," that is, a one-to-one relation between concept and percept (the sensory impression of the work).
