Abstract:
Ellen Pearlman, PhD Candidate at the School of Creative Media at Hong Kong City University, will describe her experience directing and curating an art and technology group, the Volumetric Society, with more than 2,300 members in New York City. The platform Meetup is one of the main resources she uses to organize weekly hardware hacks, lectures, performances, exhibitions and product demonstrations. The community members meet face-to-face enabling participants to experience and collaborate on projects. The discussant will focus on the use of non-hierarchical structures in enabling collaboration amongst artists and technologists, as well as forming and facilitating collaborative endeavors across social-economic backgrounds.
