若閣下是audiovisual迷戀者又電音發燒上腦, 又你是香港人或住在大中華, 你一定望穿秋水的期待著UVA的到來, 表演也好, 作品展出也好.
還記得前年我們在星光大道看到Rafael Lozano-Hemmer的 “Body Movies”. 事隔一年多, 同一個event, 同一個地點, 換來超Hip的UVA和本地藝術家Teddy Lo.

這一回UVA帶來他們最HIT的LED Interactive Installation “Volume”. 而LED ARTIST Teddy 則帶來全新作品Phaeoparia.

如果你會去參觀, 記住帶手機! 因為你們的手機訊號, 甚至bluetooth等等各類radio frequency都會跟作品互動.

這次還有兩個藝術單位主講的工作坊和講座. 惜筆者下筆前兩個Workshop已經爆滿了.

    Hi Keith,

    I don’t know if you remember me, but I am Susanna, one of your students at the multimedia workshop organized by IFVA. Just dropping by to say hi. I am actually in the process of applying to graduate schools for Interactive media, and is debating between coming back to HK to work or stay in the US to do grad school or work. I would definitely love to get some comments on the local scene of interactive art development, and your recommendations if I hope to pursue this field. Please feel free to contact me through e-mail.

    Thanks!

    Susanna

  2. Keith Says:

    Hi Susanna,
    Yes I remember you. Which school you are applying for finally?

  3. Susanna Says:

    I applied for NYUITP and 2 schools in the UK — Design interactions in RCA and Architectural association “Emergent Technologies and Design”. I actually really want to get into AA as their program is really really hardcore and their technology are very advanced.

    I was up in NYU 2 months ago for an interview with Midori ( the graduate admissions officer) — the department space was damn small, but the stuff they do are pretty hardcore. Hoping to get in.

    By the way, I got some links of my online portfolio that I am working on now — would you be able to give me some critique?

    Thanks and good luck with the microwave festival! I saw in Apple Daily the other day about the exhibition. Hong Kong is definitely very ahead in media art.

    Susanna
