The Eyebeam Roadshow: Artists Talks and Workshop

November 14th, 2008 by Richard Rinehart · 1 Comment

Sunday, Nov. 16, 11:00am-4:00pm
340 Moffitt Library, UC Berkeley campus

Presented at Berkeley by the Berkeley Center for New Media!

The Eyebeam Road Show is what you get when you mix a rock ‘n’ roll tour with the talented fellows and residents of NYC’s Eyebeam Art and Technology Center. This year we’re visiting venues in Chicago and California to present short artist talks about our projects and events. We’ll also lead day-long, hands-on workshops selected from a variety of topics, from “shop-dropping” (reverse shoplifting as activism), to building your own multi-touch display, and lots in between. Check out the website below for a full list of artists and workshops.

The Eyebeam Roadshow is an event organized by artists as a way to bring our work and skills to places where it would not otherwise be seen. The elements of this year’s tour include:
• Introduction to Eyebeam’s mandate and history, and an overview of the residency and fellowship programs.
• Talks by each of the artists about past, current, and future work.
• Hands-on workshops on a range of interesting topics, detailed in the attached PDF file.

Free and open to the public. Space is very limited, so arrive early to claim a spot and get ready to have your mind blown!

If you can, make sure to bring your own laptop for the workshop portion, and we would like to recommend that participants set up OpenFrameworks on your computer before you arrive. Instructions can be found at: http://www.openframeworks.cc/setup

    The event sounds like a lot of fun, wish I could have made it. Unfortunately, I have missed all of these so far.
