Slade Technology Fayre


Slade Technology Fayre

Slade Research Centre, Woburn Square

Thursday 7th May

Workshop sessions 11-5pm

Evening Event 5-9pm

Open Call: Anybody using technology in an interesting way to make art- or trying to make art!

Loosely modelled around the format of a science fair, Slade Technology Fayre is an informal non-hierarchical event, which seeks to gather skills and experience into the school and escalate the conversation surrounding work that makes use of technology in an interesting way.

At the Fayre all participants are both teachers and learners. Simply, the goal is to present projects or research that have a technological component. The only rule is that at some point along the line the research must have the aspiration to be read as an artwork.

For people used to presenting work in a critical context this is an opportunity to take a step back and share information about the often-invisible activities happening in the computer. For those less engaged with a critical sphere, the Fayre is an opportunity to get involved in a discussion about how the work is operating critically as well as technically

The Fayre will feature:
- Speed dating- a quick introduction to each participant and their research
- Day-time workshop sessions
- Small group critiques
- A discussion event exploring the role of technology in art practice.
- Stands from useful companies
- An evening free for all.

Examples of the kind of projects you may want to show: Physical Computing, 3D printing, Robotics, Net Art, Novel Projection Methods, Hacking (hardware or software), Lighting, Live Video, Processing, Max/MSP, Isadora…etc etc etc

Email: joe.clark.x@gmail.com to get involved. Include a little info about you and put FAYRE in the subject. All welcome.
