WORKSHOP
LIVE.MEDIA+PERFORMANCE.LAB
August 16 - 22, 2010

There is still time to register for EMPAC's summer lab for interactive media in performance, which will be held August 16-22, 2010. Directed by Johannes Birringer and Mark Coniglio, the workshop offers intensive training and possibilities for experimentation with mixed reality and real time architectures, programmable environments, interactive design and the integration of time-based media into live performance and installation.

The workshop addresses emerging and professional art practitioners, scientists, researchers, and students from different backgrounds in performance and new media committed to sharing their interest in developing a deeper understanding of composing work focused on real time, interactive or time-based experiences and multidisciplinary collaborative processes (video, sound processing, projection design, lighting, choreography, and directing).

This month's music:  Jenkins, Properly Chilled, the McGillicuddy Serious Party

There's quite a buzz going on with electronic dance music lately, and there's a lot going this TNO. We highly recommend you check out as much as possible, including our wonderful little party in Troy. Troy folk, check out Albany early and end your night here. For the rest of you, start here and end wherever. Or just stay here the whole time, as Jenkins is ending the night. He might not play house, but he'll end it right. We've got Properly Chilled for the middle slot, so expect dance-o-mania in that department. And starting things off is a new combo of McGillicuddy and Back from Japan. We're still waiting to hear what they have planned, but expect madness and/or Kiwi Politics. Very serious stuff.

DJs:
9pm-11pm: McGillicuddy Serious Party
11pm-12:30am: Properly Chilled
12:30am-2am: Jenkins

The last friday of every month, come for Troy Night Out and stay out late with us! Daisy Baker's, 9pm-2am, FREE, dance till you can't!

[HvEXAS] EMPAC | Cybernetics: Art, Design, Mathematics Conference | July 30-August 2, 2010

EMPAC
SOON

CONFERENCE
CYBERNETICS: ART, DESIGN, MATHEMATICS — A META-DISCIPLINARY CONVERSATION
July 30—August 2, 2010

Early bird registration still available!

EMPAC will be hosting Cybernetics: Art, Design, Mathematics – A Meta-Disciplinary Conversation (C:ADM2010), an international and interdisciplinary conference co-sponsored with the American Society of Cybernetics and the School of Architecture at Rensselaer.

C:ADM2010 brings together practitioners and theorists from four disciplines in an extended conversation in order to explore questions that are common to all of them. The conference involves a balanced mix of individuals from art, cybernetics, design and mathematics that have, until now, not assembled simultaneously and purposefully. Here the effort is not to document contemporary development within these fields, that is, to share those things already known, but to generate the interaction that leads to new ideas, discoveries and partnerships. This novel approach distinguishes this conference from those with a more typical disciplinary focus and traditional format.

Each of the four disciplines represented at the conference share an interest in certain questions that will be topics for discussion. These include, the nature of transdisciplinary and interdisciplinary work, ways to crossover between discplines, the concepts of metaphor, aesthetics, process in each of these fields, and the relationship between the actual and the abstract.

Additional information about the conference and surrounding events can be found at the conference's website.
