Fostering a strong, sustainable and questioning media arts community! The TINT Arts Lab is a platform that offers invited artists a space to present a new project in the form of a self contained blog. Its motivation is to nurture an open and public discussion of the projects concept, context, development, presentation and documentation between the artists, a core team of commentators, which include; Michael Demers, Susan Elizabeth Ryan, Greg J. Smiths and Pau Waelder and also the interested media arts community (that’s you!). Please don’t shy away to express your own thoughts. Critical but fair feedback to the artist’s projects and the arts lab in general is highly appreciated. The arts lab is in its first season and we see it in a beta phase. Born out of curiosity it shall remain an open platform in constant change. A probe that will help to learn more about media arts and its motivations, modes of production, documentation, and reception in an age of crowd-sourced networked complexity.

On Saturday 24th April TINT will be presenting a selection of artists in a one day event at Brixton Village Market. The event is organised by Spacemakers and will also feature other arts groups exploring media arts, computational arts, coding and hacking: ‘It’s all about interaction this week at Granville Arcade. Whether fashioning jewelery from old circuit boards, doing the robot dance with the kids, or making music with a Wii remote. We will be taking control of the future on all fronts and getting to grips with open source and Linux. There’ll be techtastic treats from visual programming for beginners, MASH live interactive digital screen, TINT media arts, computer recycling and all day drop-in IT support.’ Saturday, April 24, 2010, 11:00am – 5:00pm Artists include:
Anyone is welcome, artists, designers, architects, technologists, hobbyists and scientists…. basically those people interested in the crossover of art, science and technology! Call for artists and theorists to engage in a new collaborative media arts lab. TINT opens its Arts Lab in May 2010 to provide an online platform for artists to present and develop ideas through critical feedback and open discourse. Based on a framework of constructive critique and knowledgeable support, participating artists are invited to explore their work within the boundaries of media art. Participating artists will be required that they develop their project in their own workspace, documenting their progress thoroughly at all stages from conceptional to realisation in a dedicated blog. With the labs focus on the documentation of these usually opaque processes we enable a dedicated team of artists, theorist and practitioners as well as the wider community to respond to the project and provide thereby the possibility for artistic development. Once all the first round projects are completed, they will be jointly presented in a TINT curated event in a London based venue. Theme: Informal. As we are still looking for a regular venue to have meetups, instead of cancelling this one, we thought it would be a great chance for us to meet in an informal atmosphere and discuss possible collaborations, events and opportunities. Also giving us the first change to introduce the TINTarts lab!!!! Over the next month we will be working very hard to find that allusive venue for our Meetup, it will preferably be somewhere in East London, Shoreditch/Hackney area. If anybody has any suggestions or an available space please get in touch. If you have any questions or thoughts on the Meetup please email us at: info@tintarts.org OPEN CALL: an exhibition of open source, hacking and modding Location: Watermans Arts Centre, London TINT in collaboration with Watermans Art Centre in London is organising an exhibition of Media Art using Floss (Free/libre/open source software) as well as hacking, modding and DIY projects. We are looking for artists who are striving to make something expressive and artistically engaging with the deluge of technologies in the networks, mobile phones, gadgets and toys. This could include coding and hardware projects, which have either been built using free software or hardware, or have been created by modifying an existing device to produce a hybrid mutilation, or a completely new object in it’s own right. Selected artists will be exhibiting alongside some of the leading hacking and open source artists and collectives in the UK, such as The Owl Project, Genetic Moo, Tine Bech, Michael Zeltner, Alex Zivanovic, Alex McLean, Peter Forde and more. Continue reading Call for Proposals for new TINT & Watermans Exhibition Special thanks to Agelos Papadakis, Dave Murray-Rust and Parag Mital. We received a lot of positive feedback for their work, Memory and ChaoDependant (which went down especially well with the kids) at Kinetica Art Fair 2010.
