Presentation at St. Petersburg State University of Film and Television

Event: Digital Media Arts Forum
Place: St. Petersburg State University of Film and Television
Date: 18-19/10/2012

On the 18th and 19th October, I participated in the Digital Media Arts Forum, organised by the St. Petersburg State University of Film and Television. I had two presentations: one on the 18th, focusing on the history and state of the art of visual music; and another on the 19th, focusing on my work as Video Jack.

The audience was very motivated and participative, particularly on the second and longer presentation. It took place in the main building of the St. Petersburg State University of Film and Television, an old Orthodox monastery reconverted into a university (the main lectures took place in the ancient altar room), and the oldest film university in Russia. Hope to collaborate more to this University, where I had already presented my work in 2008.

Presentation on Interactive Audiovisual Projects, Culture Lab, Newcastle University

Today (16/5/2011) I will make a “lunch talk” presentation at Culture Lab, Newcastle University, on the following topic:
“Interactive Audiovisual Projects: Toys, Art Works or Tools?” Link to related project: www.avclash.com

Slideshow: https://www.slideshare.net/CorreiaNuno/n-correia-digitaltools201105

Thank you to Andrzej + Ewelina and Atau Tanaka @ Culture Lab for the invitation.

Culture Lab has excellent facilities: a renovated historical building (listed building erected in 1889; award-winning renovation) in the center of town. It is also very well equipped. Despite its relative youth (it was founded in 2006), the research conducted there seems quite mature (in areas such as gestural/touchscreen interaction design and social inclusion).
