Collective Base Camp 12:00 - 17:30

At the centre of the event will be a large participatory Digital Maker Base Camp, a space to develop agile and experimental projects led by members of the Collective. The camp will evolve and respond to themes, public interactions and our invited guest maker activities, interventions, debates and performances.

Join a hive of interconnected digital maker experiments and create new work and ideas to take forward together:

  • Virtual Reality Projects (With VR Explorers)
    Work alongside students as they explore VR in both spatial design and fine art practices
     
  • Open Maker Studio (Machine-Mind - Bio Feedback, Raspberry Pi, Arduino & EEG)
    A space for general work in progress and experimentation, please pop-in for a chat. Explore anything from virtual, mixed/augmented reality and virtual/real interventions, to creating artificial creatures and utopian or dystopian worlds. Use sensors, microcomputers and biofeedback devices to create interactive objects & interactions.

12:00 - 14:15 Virtual Reality Symposium, Virtual Economies: The future of work and play. Virtual Reality can lift us out of our seats and away from our screens – it immerses us in an active, participatory space that is networked and global. How will Virtual Reality shape the future for creative practice and practitioners in Art and Design? How will we work and what will we do to make money? What forms of entertainment will we spend it on? Does VR take us beyond materialism or is it the ultimate in total consumption? Virtual Reality Symposia 02
