The range of digital and multi-media installations on display reflects a diverse nature of practices; from dynamic and interactive sculpture to digital mail art. The exhibition aims to address the complex nature of creative practice in the age of information technology. For more information please contact us on 07828125211 Exhibiting Artists Ronin Cho has been driven by a keen interest in how one's ideas and experiences can be communicated to others. He explores the relationship between kinetic sculptures and media art by investigating the benefits of using technology and traditional media, including craft. As society evolves by increasingly adopting new media into everyday life, art should increasingly reflect this progression to remain relevant. Gabriel Ighodaro presents the software work The Inevitable Need. Phil Jones is a programmer in a world that is dissolving into software. And for him, this is a kind of enchantment; it is magical that words can conjure things into existence. The pieces he is showing here are all examples of that magic. Words made, if not flesh, at least plastic. Abstraction, recursion, grammar and logic are transmuted into space and movement, geometry and mechanics. Noemi Martinez-Santiago is a freelance interactive designer and visual artist from Spain. Her work explores the connections between vision and knowledge and often bridges between the imaginary and the real. She aims to create surreal interactive experiences through the use of computation. Hestia Peppe works with installation, durational performance and telepresence. The artist draws attention to new technologies such as video, the web and mass communication and their earlier manifestations; storytelling, mark, ritual, pattern and fire. In Votive Space, a site specific installation for C4CC, continuity is established between the role of communication technology in making connections between disparate people and things and ancient practices of altar making and votive offerings. Will Robinson is an artist and designer based in London whose work lives in the intersection of art and science. Experimenting with pseudo-scientific experimentation Will stages experiments that highlight the tensions inherent in both art and science. Exhibited in this show will be the latest experiment devised by Will and his scientific collaborator, Dr. Robert Thwaites. I-Yeh, Wu was born in Taipei, Taiwan. The works Wu makes are normally driven by his curiosity about technologies that we can easily access in everyday life. He tries to understand how it works, slightly change the way it should be used in order to deliver his personal philosophy, and to prompt viewers to use their different perspectives to respond to it. Dollar Post is an electronic mail system that allows users to send an electronic card. It asks machines to process the time of mailing similarly to the time it would take in the physical world. In the show, I-Yeh, Wu will exhibit a serious of document that he used to send by this system. Kentaro Yamada is a Japanese born, New Zealand raised artist. He joined Computational Studio Arts programme in 2010 after completing a first year of Masters of Fine Arts at The School of Art Institute of Chicago. His interests include the idea of everyday, the universal, aesthetic theory and phenomenology. Yamada has been exhibiting internationally for the past 6 years.
