| + | * The initial question was: why art? | ||
| + | * difficult question - instrumentalisation etc. | ||
| + | * to create innovative products? not tech but creativity driven | ||
| + | * how can artists contribute to innovation in EU? Human dimension, multiple worlds… | ||
| + | * science, arts and technology connected through physical artefacts (functionality, | ||
| + | * links art & science - common: curiosity & serendipity | ||
| + | * (social) change, communicate, | ||
| + | * artistic works in ICT&Art showed why is art important in the context of technology - e.g. big data, augmented reality, crowd (collective awareness, participation), | ||
| + | * EC: inclusion of artists in residence in different objectives: projects in IOT (internet of things), and other projects in Horizon 2020 - should become a standard practice in EC projects; dedicated call to ICT & Art (but for the time being it isn’t an evident choice… now still trying to find a rationale and see what is possible) | ||
| + | * important to have residencies on both sides - discussions with EACEA needed to see how scientists could work in arts organisations | ||
| + | * next step: artists a more central role in scientific practices | ||
| + | Yulia Matskevich (Brunel Univeristy) | ||
| + | * results went beyond wildest expectations | ||
| + | * where are we now and look towards the future | ||
| + | * started at the EU cultural forum, Robert Madelin and Ralph Dum from DG Connect supported the initial ideas | ||
| + | * 12 months: 11 events, 19 residencies + 15 external events | ||
| + | * bringing together communities | ||
| + | * learning a lot about existing issues | ||
| + | * testimonials… | ||
| + | * what art brings to ict: critical engagement and reflection & testing of tech, co-creation, | ||
| + | * what’s needed: more coordination & support, funding, infrastructure, | ||
| + | later -> @_foam Toyhacking workshop and exhibition. | ||
