Erotic Awards 2012
We're in the finals of the Erotic Awards 2012. This is part of The Night of the Senses event in west London, which has been celebrating enthusiastic sexual adventure for 25 years. We're in the artist category, other categories include; erotic film, fashion, pioneers, campaigners and pole dancers. If you enjoy dressing up and the erotic then come along on the 26th of May.
Kinetic Art @ Exploding
We're working on a new kinetic art project for Exploding Cinema called "The world, the flesh and the devil". Inspired by Sci-fi disaster films, this piece consists of a rotating cylinder full of minatures suspended in liquid. We'll be developing the work at each event. More info on our research blog
Mother in Iceland
Mother is being shown at 700IS 2012 an experimental film and video festival in Iceland. We are part of the Papay Gyro Nights program along with artists Tom Løberg (Norway), Wu Junyong (China), Chiara Ambrosio (UK), German Britch (Argentina), Thomas Rummelhoff (Norway), Zoe Walker & Neil Bromwich (UK). The festival runs from 23rd to the 28th of March. Artistic director this year is Helena Jónsdóttir.
Return to Papay
Papay Gyro Nights was a unique festival of video and other art. Nautilus worked well on a large scale and several islanders came back day after day to contribute more colours and see the progression of the piece. Using self documenting features we created an instant video of the work which was shown at the closing party. The workshop on spirals and slide making went down well and we saw some great video art. Our week's activity can be read about on our research blog and the festival facebook photos are here
Tiffin School
Genetic Moo were invited by LONSAS to host a day long digital animation workshop at Tiffin School in Kingston. The year nine boys created weird and wonderful creatures to populate The Tiffin Bestiary, a code-driven animated world. We had a brilliant day!
The London Group Open 2011
The London Group Open went well. Mutoscope was much enjoyed. The new pentaradial version gave it a variable structure and more user options. People showed a lot of interest at a talk we gave about the work. We're looking forward to the challenge of future London Group shows especially in 1913, their centenary year. Documentation of the show can be seen on The London Group's Flickr page
Deptford X 2011
We showed The Fly at Deptford X 2011, London's foremost contemporary arts festival. We were upstairs at the Amersham Arms where over the festival weekend we got hundreds of people to indulge in our pulsating flesh landscape. We collaborated with sound designer Patricia Afari (AKA NuKarm).
Papa Westray August 2011
The show in Papay was a success with over half the island attending to interact with Growthlines and the Animacules. We also had time to research for the Gyro Nights 2012 festival which is next February. You can read about our trip on our research blog
Glastonbury 2011
We survived Glastonbury 2011 and brought our interactive art to thousands of late night revelers in the Shangri-La zone. To hear more about the experience visit our research blog
