Engaging technologies with communities and artistic practices
Ircam is hosting two days of workshops, presentations, and panels, open to the public, for the two research projects Living Archive and DOTS, supported by the ANR (National Research Agency).
Living Archive aims to design interactive systems that allow practitioners to easily document and archive their dance using their own methods and personal artifacts emphasizing a first-person perspective and minimizing imposed choices from academic researchers.
DOTS aims to design and implement new tools fostering creative workflows in co-located musical distributed systems, and to produce documented case-studies of how expert practitioners in music and arts appropriate such technologies creatively.
We present the interactive systems and approaches implemented in Living Archive and Dots and invite collaborators as well as researchers and artists to discuss cultures of technology and methods, epistemologies and positionalities for engaging with communities of artistic practices.
