SANDBOX (R)EVOLUTION

Queen Mary University of London, Media and Arts Technology Centre for Doctoral Training (UK)

SANDBOX (R)EVOLUTION showcases ten interactive installations that have evolved under the theme of new or pre-loved materials, repurposed as interfaces for manipulation of digital realms.

Caroline Sinders (US)

Feminist Data Set acts as a means to combat bias and introduce the possibility of data collection as a feminist practice, aiming to produce a slice of data to intervene in larger civic and private networks.

The aim of the subject The Best of New Media Art is to acquaint students with media art history in a similar way.

Paintball Techniques
Patricio Rivera (AR)

The piece addresses the declarative character of the shot as a force of performative enunciation and exclamation point of an intention; a statement, although regulated by law, free to be executed within the elusive alibi of an artwork.
