. Test_Lab: Summer Sessions Date: Thursday September 17, 2009 Time: 20.00h Location: V2_Groundfloor V2_Institute for the Unstable Media Eendrachtsstraat 10 Rotterdam | www.v2.nl Featuring: Melissa Coleman (NL) | Tarik Barri (NL) | David de Buyser (BE) | Introduction: Boris Debackere (BE) | Respondent: Angela Plohman (CA) http://www.v2.nl/events/test_lab-summer-sessions It is the end of summer, but the start of a new Test_Lab season! Summertime for most people means beaches and barbecues, but at V2_, three up-and-coming young artists have spent the summer developing their art practice. During the intensive working period entitled "Summer Sessions," each of them has collaborated with V2_’s expert developers, project managers and curators to produce new work. The outcome of these residencies will be the focus of a special summer edition of Test_Lab. In the 2009 Summer Sessions, artists Tarik Barri, Melissa Coleman and David de Buyser respectively developed projects in the fields of augmented reality, wearable technology, and interactive organic environments. By holding the three residencies in parallel, V2_ aimed to promote a creative synergy between these enthusiastic young artists. Test_Lab: Summer Sessions will show the results of this synergy through demonstrations of the works created during the residencies and discussion of the artists’ experiences of these intensive working periods. As usual in V2_’s Test_Labs, the audience will be invited to critically test the works through hands-on engagement. To celebrate the end of the Summer Sessions, we’ll also be serving refreshing free cocktails! This event will be streamed live at http://www.v2.nl For more information please contact: Michel van Dartel E: [email protected] T: +31(0)10 206 72 72 Test_Lab is a bi-monthly public event organized by V2_, the Institute for the Unstable Media, that provides an informal setting for the presentation, demonstration, testing, and discussion of artistic Research and Development (aRt&D). _______________________________________________ nettime-ann mailing list [email protected] http://www.nettime.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/nettime-ann
