We want to avoid projects being developed in silos and being developed without the inclusion of the wider Digital maker Collective.

Roy Ascott talked of concepts formed and developed via visual means – reinventing syntax to navigate the inadequacies of verbal and numerate systems. We will be looking at how artists can connect with conceptual digital research via analogue experiments – developing practical analogues of conceptual, behavioural and environmental issues brought up by artworks within the collection.\r\n\r\nPractically, our two days at Tate Exchange will involve material production in response to some direct questions posed by the lead group, following the methodology of Ascott’s Groundcourse but actively articulating issues arising within fine art as it continues to respond to and become activated by digital interfaces and modes of capture. Example questions could be: \r\n\r\nImagine you wake up one morning to find you are Colin Self’s Leopardskin Nuclear Bomber No. 2 (1963) Visually restructure the parts to form a new identity. \r\n\r\nImagining that Beatriz Gonzalez’ Interior Decoration (1981) is an analogue for an event that included sound, construct an analogue for the sound in xxx\r\n\r\nAnalyse and dissect Louise Bourgeois’ Cell (Eyes and Mirrors) (1989–93) Visually discuss its cellular structure.\r\n \r\nThese projects will run alongside two one-hour events on each date which link our own artistic research to the Imagining Technology project. \r\n\r\nOn 8 March Alex Veness will engage the public in production using his own invented scanner camera\r\n\r\nOn 22 March Zoë Mendelson will invite the public to create the soundtrack to a collage film.\r\n\r\n**Key words to help identify themes**\r\n\r\nConcrete virtuality \r\nFear of the machine \r\nLuddism\r\nPainting as a technology\r\nHandmade machines\r\nAutography\r\nVentriloquism \r\nRoy Ascott projects, 2011 - Leonardo Journal honorary editor / technoetic arts\r\n\r\n**Dates you are committing to, can be all: below dates (12pm to 6pm):**\r\n\r\nWeds 8th March \r\nWeds 22nd March \r\n\r\n**Requirements/wish list of kit:**\r\n\r\nProjection – wall with possibility of projecting active drawing from tablet\r\nCardboard sheets and paper construction materials\r\nTape of different colours\r\nLenses – security fish eye / selection of spectacle frames / other forms of lens\r\nFilter gel sheets - coloured\r\nAccess in advance for students to select and view works in collection with a Tate supervisor \r\nWire cables and clamp attachments\r\nRope\r\nBlack mark-making stuff – pencils, pens, brushes and ink\r\nLarge sheets cartridge paper at least 180gsm\r\n"}}
