Every year, V2_ Institute for the Unstable Media invites a small group of up-and-coming artists to spend their summer in the V2_Lab for an intense short-term residency. During these so-called Summer Sessions, the selected artists are given the opportunity to develop an artwork in close collaboration with V2_’s expert developers, curator and project managers. This year’s Summer Sessions will welcome another selection of up-and-coming artists into the V2_Lab to work on projects in the fields of augmented reality, wearable technology, and ecology – the three central research themes of the V2_Lab. By holding these Summer Sessions residencies in parallel, V2_ aims to promote a creative synergy between these up-and-coming artists.
In this special edition of V2_’s Test_Lab program at ISEA2011, the outcome of the Summer Sessions 2011 will be presented. As it is custom to V2_’s Test_Lab, the projects will be demonstrated live and the audience will be invited to assess the artworks hands-on.
