Interfaces Monthly 102016: Werkflow
25 Oct 2016
Fish Island Labs
London, United Kingdom
This event is free and open to all, but registration is required.
February's edition of Interfaces Monthly will discuss 'Performance & Participation'. The term performance now relates to a spectrum of human and non-human behaviours. When the distinction between user and performer blurs, how can we re-imagine our participation online and offline?
Interfaces Monthly is a regular get-together for people working at the junction of art and technology, organised by the Barbican and The Trampery. A platform for ideas and exchange, each event includes selected artwork, presentations and discussions in an informal social setting with a low-priced bar. Get your tickets here!
The evening will feature talks by practitioners critically engaging with P&P through means including installation, web-based artworks and performance with digital devices:
Oliver Sutherland graduated from the Royal College of Art in 2012, and now lives and works in Bristol. Over the past few years he has worked with Falmouth University and Centroid Motion Capture Studios, focusing on the sculptural attributes of object based performance capture. Sutherland’s work often examines the language of digital production, focusing on the relationship between content, tool and the user. Oliver was recently an associate artist as part of the Tate St Ives Artists Programme 2015, and is a recipient of the CMIR and Spike Island Moving Image Bursary 2016. He is also currently a PhD candidate at 3D3 Consortium. Recent exhibitions include 'Big Screen Southend:' (Focal Point Gallery, Southend, 2016) and 'Is This Living?' (The Approach, London, 2016).
Shobhan S is a communication designer who works across disciplines, mediums & contexts. He is a creative technologist at Random International and holds an MA from the Royal College of Art. Having started out with graphic design, he now builds experiences to communicate difficult notions (like quantum principles or wartime civilian deaths). He thinks about the divide between design & engineering while building artworks, and — in his spare time — about our relationship with machines in the years-to-come.
Sisters from Another Mister is the jointly authored artistic identity of Milda Lembertaitė and Amelia Prazak. It was formed in 2011, after they studied Performance Design and Practice at Central Saint Martins. In 2014, they graduated from Chelsea College of Art with an MA in Fine Arts. They have a free-wheeling practice employing absurd scenarios, gender play, sculptural forms, musical interludes and video works, in which they, themselves often feature. Exhibitions and performances include: 'Perímetro: Cine Expandido' (Centro de Cultura Digital, Mexico City, 2016); 'Fictions Are Realities To Come' (Zabludowicz Collections, London, 2015); 'The Grass Is Greener On The Other Side' (Roundhouse, London, 2013), 'Casablanca' (V&A, London, 2012).
Doors open at 7pm - with presentations beginning at 7:15pm - followed by discussion and drinks.
