Synopsis

Demystifying the entire collaborative process of creating large-scale interactive art. Ever wonder what it takes to build a living, breathing interactive art exhibition? From the pioneers, the inspirations, the technicians, the producers, the coders, the curators, the sound designers and everyone else, even the audience.

Genetic Moo pulls back the curtain on this complex world. Join them at the Computer Arts Society (BCS, London) on Tuesday 16 June, where they will try to explain why Interactive Art is the best.

See their art in action, plus pre-order their new book - a multi-perspective guide designed to help emerging artists navigate this fascinating and rewarding space.
