About Trivia Art

The main activity of the Trivia Art Association is directed to the creation, supporting and production the art projects of its members and collaborators with the emphasis of the contemporary visual and intermedia production.

Marija Mojca Pungercar graduated from Academy of Fine Arts in Ljubljana and got MFA in new genres at San Francisco Art Institute, California. She has worked at the field of contemporary visual art since 1983. Her work has a strong documentary character and engages various media: installation, video, performance. She also creates costume design for theatre and works as the editor of the Artservis online media.

Borut Savski is an inter/multimedia artist that works in the domain of concepts and contexts, especially in connection to sound (and sound objects) – as metaphor. His background is in independent radio, internet media and electronics. His artistic installations are more conceptually orientated, while performances are more immediate – contextual situations.

Marjan Kokot is online-news journalist. He was the editor of 24.ur online newsportal. His background is in media activism and publishing.

Trivia Records Zapisi
  • Lately i am acquiring some finger dexterity again. The victims are some relatively newly developed instruments (turboguitars, turboflutes and cirkulinos). Here is a selection of cutouts from various live situations - mostly as parts of Cirkulacija 2 program - from 2020 onwards.
  • Celjska interdisciplinarna impro zasedba s projektnim imenom Umoblodnica v sestavi: Iva Tratnik, Andreja Džakušič, Keiko Miyazaki, Estela Žutić, Simon Macuh, Dalibor Bori Zupančič, Borut Peternelj – Amper-o-mat. Posnetek nastopa 20. maja 2021 Cirkulaciji 2 | podhod Ajdovščina.
  • Generative algorithmic composition excerpts based on realtime video data for Francisco Tomsich "ELEGIJA | ELEGY" video installation presented from 10th to 21st July 2020 at Cirkulacija 2 Ljubljana Slovenia. Elegija (Elegy) is a mournful song performed by ensemble of video installations, sculptures and sound installation – made specifically for Cirkulacija 2’s premises. The installation setup was totally site-specific – for the new space of Cirkulacija 2 in Ajdovščina subway.
  • Field recordings in air and water during the Cirkulacija 2 visit in Finland. The place of rest and contemplation was at Future Lake near Helsinki and the performance place was on Merikerho club/ ship in Helsinki harbor. Boštjan Leskovšek was using the underwater recordings as his instrument. Here it is as separate album.
  • A recording of Cirkulacija 2 (Stefan Doepner, Boštjan Leskovšek, Borut Savski) performance at Merikerho club Helsinki Finland on 20th October 2018. Visit was part of two-way exchange between Ljubljana and Helsinki (Cirkulacija 2 and Koelse = Association of experimental electronics – Kokeellisen Elektroniikan Seura)
  • V gosteh v C2 je bil John Duncan, eden temeljnih sodobnih radikalnih umetnikov zadnjih štirideset let. Z Duncanom smo v veliki dvorani Cirkulacije 2 v treh dneh pripravili kvadrofonsko situacijo v kateri smo se zvrstili vsi sodelujoči. Domači sodelujoči: Iva Tratnik, Stefan Doepner, Boštjan Leskovšek in Borut Savski.
  • Double-bill/ triple action. On the occasion of Mike Hentz' Mental Landscapes lecture at Cirkulacija 2 - a concert occurred: Javier Areal Vélez – Argentinian composer and guitar improviser claiming to be open to any kind of participation visited C2. He was joined by the two local strummers: Leskovšek and Savski.
  • Moške sodobne različice vokaliziranja so izven gostilne ali cerkve (formatiranih oblik pevskih zborov) redke. Na pobudo Košnika, ob neposrednem nedavnem vzoru Tomažinke, je nastala ideja za uporabo glasu kot izhodišče in elektroakustične prijeme kot berglo za tri zvočne raziskave.
  • Ob otvoritvi sezone Cirkulacija 2 | leto 2017/ letnik X - prigodni kulturno-umetniški program – impro session, dva ali trije. Mali synthi velikega Boštjana in otožni zvoki mandolin – Savski + Cirkulino ter Kristl.
