The Intersection of Art and Technology

As art influences science and technology, science and technology can in turn inspire art. Recognizing this mutually beneficial relationship, researchers at the Casa Paganini-InfoMus Research Centre work to combine scientific research in information and communications technology (ICT) with artistic and humanistic research. Here, the authors discuss some of their work, showing how their collaboration with artists informed work on analyzing nonverbal expressive and social behavior and contributed to tools, such as the EyesWeb XMI hardware and software platform, that support both artistic and scientific developments. They also sketch out how art-informed multimedia and multimodal technologies find application beyond the arts, in areas including education, cultural heritage, social inclusion, therapy, rehabilitation, and wellness

A View of the Intersection of Art and Technology

Using technology to teach art and design

Japanese Modernism Across Media

This essay examines the pedagogical benefits of implementing a semester-long digital curation project using the open-source web-publishing platform Omeka Classic. It discusses the importance of teaching students to critically analyze the role of images in society as well as how to develop skills for evaluating various forms of digital media and resources. By using experiential learning pedagogy to establish connections between Japan studies and visual studies, this article explores the significant value of teaching visual literacy as well as encouraging students and scholars alike to consider the possibilities and limits that result at the intersection of art and technology

Straddling the intersection

Music technology straddles the intersection between art and science and presents those who choose to work within its sphere with many practical challenges as well as creative possibilities. The paper focuses on four main areas: secondary education, higher education, practice and research and finally collaboration. The paper emphasises the importance of collaboration in tackling the challenges of interdisciplinarity and in influencing future technological developments

The Metamorphic Role of the Artist Across the Digital Technology Timeline

The intersection of art and technology has reached unprecedented heights, with digital technologies emerging as novel tools and collaborators in the realm of artistic creation. How do artists navigate the intricate web of challenges (concerns of authenticity, authorship, and copyright) while embracing the potential of digital collaboration and appropriation? From ‘isolated genius’ to ‘entrepreneur’, the fusion of art and technology has redefined what it means to be an artist, with tasks such as coding, digital rendering, data analysis, as well as social networking, becoming as crucial as traditional craftsmanship. Through a chronological exploration of pivotal moments, Jelena Guga will uncover how artists have not merely reacted to digital trends but actively forged new pathways, redefining their identity and impact and unveiling a narrative of adaptability, innovation, and reflection.Information on the symposium, here: https://ulus.rs/blog/iaa-europe-symposium-arts-and-robots/?lang=en Recording of the symposium, here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-UNUyesqlY

The dancer in the eye: Towards a multi-layered computational framework of qualities in movement

This paper presents a conceptual framework for the analysis of expressive qualities of movement. Our perspective is to model an observer of a dance performance. The conceptual framework is made of four layers, ranging from the physical signals that sensors capture to the qualities that movement communicate (e.g., in terms of emotions). The framework aims to provide a conceptual background the development of computational systems can build upon, with a particular reference to systems analyzing a vocabulary of expressive movement qualities, and translating them to other sensory channels, such as the auditory modality. Such systems enable their users to "listen to a choreography" or to "feel a ballet", in a new kind of cross-modal mediated experience

Iniciativas de mujeres en la intersección del arte y la tecnología: un mapeo del caso español

[ES] El presente artículo es una exploración de las iniciativas autoorganizadas de mujeres que han surgido en la intersección del arte y la tecnología en España. A nivel internacional, las primeras formas colectivas han ido apareciendo en lugares donde existe una escena de arte y nuevos medios, la cual es generalmente de dominación masculina y baja en diversidad. Este artículo muestra los resultados particulares de un mapeo de este fenómeno tecno-social y artístico a nivel nacional. A través de entrevistas y métodos de investigación etnográfica, se examinan las diferentes tipologías formatos y objetivos de estas iniciativas en relación a conceptos de resistencia cultural, redes y comunidad creativa.[EN] This article is an exploration of the self-organized initiatives of women that have emerged at the intersection of art and technology in Spain. Internationally, the first collective forms have been appearing in places where there is an art and new media scene, which is generally male-dominated and low in diversity. This article shows the particular results of a mapping of this techno-social and artistic phenomenon at the national level. Through interviews and ethnographic research methods, the different typologies, formats and objectives of these initiatives are examined in relation to concepts of cultural resistance, networks and creative community

Resonance of The Unseen

in the moment playful in memory of learning altogether Thuy-Dung (Julius) Nguyen\u27s exhibition, \u27Resonance of the Unseen,\u27 confronts the sensory saturation of contemporary life by elevating the unobserved aspects of perception. Through sound, scent, and touch, this immersive installation encourages a rediscovery of the elemental experiences of life. The show illuminates the concept of absence, not only as something lacking but as an integral part of the sensory narrative, inviting a deeper resonance with the world
