Abstract:
Teaching electronic arts in art schools and universities has always involved temporal experimentation, as educators seek ways to evoke interrelated histories of technologies, genres, disciplines, movements, subcultures, and communities of practice that are constantly remediated, rediscovered, and reborn. This temporal experimentation is further intensified as electronic artist/teachers reach outside the classroom, to partner with communities on pedagogical explorations that also engage with radically different local understandings of history, time, and place, through “resonant” approaches to ecology, environment, and cultures in change. At the School of Art, Media, Performance, and Design, at York University, Toronto, Canada, the past five years have been marked by new kinds of partnered learning and research experiences in electronic arts, taking place across our fine arts departments, and shaping our brand-new Creative Technologies program (launching in September 2024). This institutional presentation shares new initiatives at AMPD and invites ISEA delegates and their local partners to imagine new kinds of connections between our programs and their own work. The institutional presentation showcases electronic arts work from our resource sharing, pedagogical partnering, and technology management, and shares some of our current global community-based partnerships.
