Intermedia Festival: Artistic Collaborations Over High Bandwidth Networks
Time 11/04/10 10:30AM-11:45AM
Session Abstract
Held in Indianapolis in April 2010, the Intermedia Festival of Telematic Arts was a unique series of events presenting futuristic modes of live telematic and media arts by artists throughout North America and Europe. Telematic art synthesizes performing arts with computers, media and telecommunications. While more than 100 performers traveled to Indianapolis, others participated interactively through Internet2. Live dance, music, visual arts, videography, commentary and discussion were integrated to create a compelling set of experiences.
The presentation will include an overview of the multi-institutional activity involving students, faculty, and administrators. Classes of students from Florida State University, Indiana University Purdue University Indianapolis (IUPUI), Butler University, University of Calgary, University of Cincinnati and Indiana University Bloomington met in the months prior to the festival in order to plan and rehearse their respective performances online. Discussion will also examine the presentation of telematic art to the general public via Internet2 at the downtown Indianapolis Public Library. This effort involved strategies to intermingle both high and low bandwidth venues into a seamless, integrated performance environment. An online panel discussion comprised of collaborating faculty, students and administrators will be part of the presentation.
