==== Ict Art Connect ====

Artist & technologist partnerships from across Europe will come together to share outcomes instigated through their participation in the project and to showcase both work and ideas from their projects so far. It will offer the opportunity to meet the creators, experience some of their work and to challenge ideas and perceptions on the future connections between Art and Technology. More about [[http://fo.am/ict-art-connect/| the programme]] on the FoAM site.

A few notes from the meeting:

ICT & art connect 20140512

#ictart @IctArt

  * new research avenues
  * consultation & matchmaking, residencies
  * building an ict & art community - legacy, transfer to a new study

chief scientific advisor of ec - prof an glover
  * culture of eu tied up with creativity in science, engineering & arts
  * cosmic trilogy concert - expanding m=imagination about a scientific phenomena (big bang)
  * arts communicates?
  * science not communicated is science not done’
  * not a big gap between arts and society? bigger gap between science & society (decreasing interest in young people, movement of anti-science)
  * impact for the citizen - in EU knowledge funded by the citizens, but they don’t see the impact
  * common challenges for artists and scientists
  * scotland strathclyde school of engineering - honors projects with glasgow school of arts
  * "all you need is space" - graphic novel published by the EC to popularise space science

  * working together is difficult - making compromises
  * DG RTD, DG culture - prize bringing together art, education and science (for young people)
  * needed to bring together different parts of the creative community - different languages to generate a new way of talking about things - opens up possibility for innovation (new ways of thinking)
  * joint research center
  * dg connect (digital economy), communication
  * it all comes back to communicate
  * young people are our hope - early education, less barriers


Svetlana from Black Cube collective

Exhibition themes
  * co-creation
  * citizen engagement

Emerging themes: environment, ethics and social change


AR sign battle
  * nantes hackathon (pervasive, city wild gaming)
  * road sign as natural markers for an AR game - each sign has a mini game attached to different signs - stop & 50km signs
  * location based game

Art of the deep
  * RPG for education - ecosystems science, computing, art & making prototypes
  * kids of 10-11 yrs old
  * co-creation and writing/programming - exposing code within the game, then the build web pages
  * future - using physical tech

Butterfly light (trope)
  * getting out of the screen, physical animation


Comic strip
  * collaborative comic strip drawing app
  * drawing & writing together

Dancing with drones (CollMot)
  * collective motion - study animals to see how they move together, then build flocking robots 
  * intrest in flocking behaviour & movement between humans & machines
  * visualisation and notation of motion data 
  * repulsion, attraction, synchrony
  * laban b-scale - used well with both physical movement and drones 

Data Ethics
  * data collection, consent, open data
  * 'terms and conditions form' (a performative act) - pattern making & online documentation
  * what is the dialogue about giving away personal data 
  * 'consent' - 'the rhythm of life' the photon multiplier - why do you emit photons? + looking at metadata
  * www.dataethics.org

Hacking choreography 2.0
  * dance & technology, RT video systems
  * technology interfering with the choreographic process
  * dance scores & computer programming languages
  * generative art, live coding (clojure - fast prototyping)
  * sw, visualisation, bodies

desirable dossiers - Healthcare through a data lens
  * electronic health records
  * quantified self - poop log, skin vision… self remedy
  * translation healthcare - ICT - quite reductionist. contextual information is needed (more holistic picture)
  * how society determines what is in the medical records


human sensor group
  * human health & climate change
  * respiratory system in the urban environments
  * wearables - checking the air quality & exhaled breath in asthma patients (bioluminescent reaction - installation & performance) - eNO (nitric oxyde) sensor, hacked and created an affordable version, now you can see your breath visualised
  * IOT - sensors separate from visualisation

crowd control 
  * improv, creating decisions in the moment
  * crowds - how can you interact with the performance
  * democratisation of involvement
  * mobiles as input devices
  * different models of performance - different ways of managing the relationship between artists and performance
  * bigger team needed with different specialties

Ministry of measurement
  * hack the barbican
  * data exchange, data as commodity
  * cloak room as a dystopian data centre of the ministry of measurement
  * data and culture series
  * pink sheet method (started at the future everything, going to lighthouse)

Not to be reproduced
  * 3d printing - forcing the machine to do things it didn’t want to do (like hovering things)
  * absorbing painting practice into 3rd printing process, using different coloured filaments

Sense shifting / Emotiorama
Marco Zaccaria
  * integrating technology
  * device to mediate non verbal information - using biosignals and making them transparent in an interaction
  * participatory performance using galvanic skin response sensors translated into sound + microphones using the sound 
  * co-present full immersion residencies are important
  * Asimov science is on 


Silicasonisphere 
Dave Murray-Rys & Carrie Fertig
  * tactile glass
  * light as medium for interactionL refractions, patterns of light translated as frequency - the sound that glass makes
  * speed dating works

Death from above
  * tech that military develop are taking their cues from video game environments
  * is the military playing war
