[NEW BOOK] Technology, Design and the Arts - Opportunities and Challenges
Posted by: Rmna Rmna 1 year, 4 months ago
Editors: Rae Earnshaw, Susan Liggett, Peter Excell, Daniel Thalmann
This open access book details the relationship between the artist and their created works, using tools such as information technology, computer environments, and interactive devices, for a range of information sources and application domains. This has produced new kinds of created works which can be viewed, explored, and interacted with, either as an installation or via a virtual environment such as the Internet. These processes generate new dimensions of understanding and experience for both the artist and the public’s relationships with the works that are produced. This has raised a variety of interdisciplinary opportunities and issues, and these are examined.

[POLICY BOOKLET] Designing support measures promoting connections between artists and ICT, by RegionArts
Posted by: Rmna Rmna 1 year, 5 months ago
Cultural and creative industries (CCIs) have always played an important driving role in the development of innovative processes that leverage human capital, vertical specializations and networks - often informal - that contribute to the creation of the 'soft economy'. The creative profession is not only the creator of initiatives with a strong social impact but also generates positive effects on the economy. During the lockdown, in fact, CCIs have exponentially increased the use of digital technology: on the one hand, the awareness of the importance of ICT, a channel on which to invest more resources, has increased; on the other hand, the technological gaps of cultural organizations that would need greater interaction with ICT professionals to develop integrated strategies and key competencies have become evident. The crisis also brought to light the urgent need to further encourage cross-fertilization between the cultural and creative sectors and traditional industries - such as health and education - to develop new, more sustainable business models, increase the innovative offer and generate positive spillovers on the territory and the economy.
