Genetic Moo
Genetic Moo will discuss how they imagined the show and demonstrate several of their interactive artworks from the Starfish to the Squidlets. They have been making interactive art for 6 years creating fantastical human-hybrid creatures collaged from photographs of their own bodies.
Genetic Moo is artist couple Tim Pickup and Nicola Schauerman (who gave the inaugural talk at Cardiff Dorkbot back in 2011). They will explain the programming and graphics behind their creations and talk a little about the workshops planned for the following week.

Tine Bech
Tine Bech is a visual artist and researcher working with interactive installations and public art. For Microworld:Arcadia Tine is showing three light sculptures which change in colour as you move around them. These creatures communicate with each other and generate playful colour schemes as they detect spectators. Their luminosity will also activate other light seeking beings throughout the space.
Tine has exhibited interactive artwork internationally for years and is currently doing a Phd at Bristol.

Sean Clark uses system theory to create interactive artworks. Last year with Genetic Moo he organised a show called Symbiotic at the Phoenix Cube gallery in Leicester which saw multiple interacting artworks. Sean will be showing Whale which stores memories of what it has seen - building up waves of visual material over time. He will also be bringing along his Etch-a-Pi, an Etch-a-sketch raspberry Pi hybrid.

Sarah Younan is doing a PhD at the Cardiff School of Art and Design researching using 3d scanning and print technologies to extend the impact of ceramic museum objects. She scans artefacts from the ceramics collections of the National Museum of Wales and then finds novel ways to engage with the digital models and 3d prints. People have created films, artworks and video games using her scans and she is looking to get more people involved. |
