Opening reception: Friday, November 9, 6:00 - 9:00 p.m.
Prototyping: An
Exhibition in the Cloud, is an interdisciplinary collaborative project
between the Parsons School of Art, Media and Technology (AMT) and the Media
Arts department from University of the Arts in Berlin. Prototyping is typically the foundation of any design-based
practice; this workshop, however, seeks to subvert that tradition by means of a
variety of artistic interventions. The
project seeks to create a shared learning and production environment, a space
for cross-pollination that is truly global, one not tied to a single geographic
location. All research and outcomes
produced during the project will be uploaded to the cloud and then later downloaded and produced for the exhibition in
Aronson using a variety of devices including rapid prototyping equipment,
laser-cutters, hi-end photographic printers, and a variety of variety of other
digital and analog means and methods. The show is conceived in a way that transcends boundaries,
borders, and customs and is meant to be a prototype
itself, one that can be copied, reproduced on-demand
anywhere in the world. The show will be
downloaded and manifested in Berlin in January of 2013 and then possibly in
Shanghai and Paris later next year. Gallery Hours
Open daily 12:00 noon - 6:00 p.m.
and late Thursday evenings until 8:00 p.m.; closed on all major holidays and
holiday eves. Admission is free. There will be a website and an on-demand catalog that can be purchased at the gallery during the
run of the show.
