Cimatics presents
A MASTERCLASS FOR LIVE AUDIOVISUAL ART
Cimatics, Brussels International Platform for Live A/V, presents a Masterclass Live Audiovisual Art, within the framework of the studio-program Experimental Media-art provided by the VAF (the Flemish Audiovisual Fund).
Because the biggest merit of live A/V is its cross-border and cross-disciplinary character the masterclass will challenge its participants to do just that: collaborate.
THIS BLOG WILL BE PRINTED AND PUBLISHED AS A BOOK

The goal of this blog is to generate an open-source effect: opening up the discussions from within the masterclass to the rest of the world. Let this be a call for everyone to participate and join or start a debate.
 
Eventually, this blog will be printed as a book. An additional DVD with the open-source versions (Creative Commons license) of the participants masterclass-projects will be available afterwards. So if you post something to this blog, you are co-authoring the book.

Random images #2

This time from the exhibition of Holger Lippman at Mediaruimte. Running as realtime software, these pieces are self-running and autonomous of the artist, yet are clearly connected to concepts of live cinema. See this text by Inke Arns for a discussion of the performative qualities of software.

A late hello...

I just realized I still hadn't posted anything on the blog, so here I am. First of all, I want to thank all the people who came to or were involved in the Masterclass, the Cinematic Experience conference and Cimatics. I had a great time in Brussels and I hope you did too.

To start the ball rolling, here are some random images from the festival:
