January 21st, 2010 6:00pm - 8:00pm
Social Object: Sculpture and Software
A brief talk about the project by Michael Rees
with Don Guarnieri.
Michael Rees will discuss his exhibition Social Object: Sculpture and Software at the The Project Room for New Media at CAM. He will be joined by Donald Guarnieri, the producer of the project, to speak about the framework of ideas around this exhibition. They will discuss the software and sculpture that are in the exhibition and demonstrate interaction in the Sculptural User Interface.
The Sculptural User Interface is a language to form synthesizer.
Social Object: sculpture and software includes correlated physical objects with virtual objects. Interacting with the software creates screen based experiences that construct virtual objects from which physical objects can be derived. The work explores the relationship between language and form and creates a framework for virtual and physical play.
Guests who are interested are more than welcome to join the talk. There is no registration necessary.
CAM is opened as regularly on Thursdays from 11:00am to 8:00pm. Talk is free with museum admission.

Artist talk is made possible by The Experimental Television Center’s Presentation Funds program which is supported by the New York State Council on the Arts
