Since its invention, the Web development has been influenced by the artists. They feed its moving and inspiring organology, mirof of our society, of our usages, of our knowledge. In 2012, the web is massively an audiovisual web. Are these medias launches the convergence between social and semantic webs? Is creative the use of metadata? Do we invent alternatives interfaces? Several experiences coming from the artistic world will presented to think, design and develop the future of the web.
- Nicolas Nova (Near Future Laboratory)
Information technologies and specifically the web, provide an original material to create specific artistic forms. I will concentrate on the activity of online bots (on twitter or other social networks) and on the growing hybridization between online activity and physical objects (“printed” jewels taking different forms on different pictures available on Flickr for example). We focus on the interpretation of such an evolution and on the implications for the users and the environment.
- Pierre Bizollon (Linkingbrand)
Design, ergonomy and (social and technological) efficiency are the closest elements to Art when we consider digital industry. As a “hands on” business person, I will present a concrete and operationnal view of the latest “innovations” and best practices in terms of Design, Ergonomy and Efficiency. Objective is to give you a perspective of what may happen in the next years!
- Marie-Haude Caraës (Cité du Design)
Marie-Haude Caraës will be the “Discussant” of the panel with her very deep knowledge of the new generation of artists and creators of the web.
