This three day international symposium brought into focus artistic practices of live performance that make use of digital technology in the form of lens-based, networked or locative media. Due to the abundance and accessibility of previously unaffordable technologies, new possibilities have been experimented with and new practice has developed.
The Symposium brought together leading practitioners, developers, scientists and theorists from the disciplines that make up new media performance including live art, locative and pervasive media, telematics, performance and dance, wearable, sensor based and cybernetic technologies.
The symposium is a collaboration between the Radiator Festival for New Technology Art (Miles Chalcraft and Anette Schäfer, Trampoline) and the Digital Cultures Lab of Nottingham Trent University (Johannes Birringer).
