In t he spirit of disruptive ideas and breaking down barriers we ask\, "\ ;How can art and technology and the synergy of the two address humanity' s next evolutionary step?"\; Four categories of work will address th ese questions and collectively speak to the power of human ingenuity. We invite artistic and technological creators to submit their work that ad dresses human survival in an era of interspecies evolution\, revolution\ , and devolution. \;\n \;\nArt and technology are two words that f or many represent vastly different worlds\, and for generations have lar gely existed along parallel\, yet non-convergent lines. But now the pote ntial for unprecedented collaboration is here. Ever-evolving technologie s allow us to share ideas across borders\, both geographic and symbolic. Such potential for shared ideas has helped break down long standing sil os that for generations inhibited expansive thought and human progressio n. \;\n \;\nThe lines are now blurred. Creators of all sorts now h ave public space to mutually ponder where we've been\, where we are\, an d where we're going. By sharing once segregated perspectives\, we can se e the world through a different lens and evolve as a species like never before. \;\n \;\nE= m4 humanity - Submissions will fall into one o f four conceptual areas: \;\n \;\nMomentum: captures the inertia a nd velocity of human innovation \;\nMaintenance: captures the drive for ecological and human preservation \;\nMultiplicity: captures the boundless potential of human convergence \;\nMobility: captures the facilitation of human movement and idea exchange \;\nhttp://tinyurl. com/yelpreview08\n\nTags: art\, technology\, sao\, software association of oregon\, user groups\, free\, public\, party\, networking\n\nImported from: http://calagator.org/events/1250455773 URL:http://tinyurl.com/art-tech08 SUMMARY:Equilibrium: The Human Mash Up LOCATION:Olympic Mills Commerce Center: 107 Se Washington St\, Portland O R 97214 US SEQUENCE:0 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT CREATED;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20081110T214457Z DTEND;TZID=America/Los_Angeles;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20081112T210000 DTSTART;TZID=America/Los_Angeles;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20081112T180000 DTSTAMP;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20081110T214457Z LAST-MODIFIED;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20090209T202622Z UID:http://calagator.org/events/1250456117 DESCRIPTION:The Springboard Social Innovation Forum is a new monthly even t designed to engage community members in solving local challenges with lasting solutions.

The key to Pecha Kucha Night is it s patented system for avoiding this fate. Each presenter is allowed 20 i mages\, each shown for 20 seconds each – giving 6 minutes 40 seconds of fame before the next presenter is up. This keeps presentations concise\, the interest level up\, and gives more people the chance to show. \; \n \;\nPecha Kucha (which is Japanese for the sound of conversation) has tapped into a demand for a forum in which creative work can be easil y and informally shown\, without having to rent a gallery or chat up a m agazine editor. This is a† demand that seems to be global – as Pecha Kuc ha Night\, without any pushing\, has spread virally to over 100 cities a cross the world.

It is a room that listens to the notes in your voice and uses them to compose music and change the color of the room. As the project progr essed\, further opportunities for control were implemented. An interacti ve kiosk gives users the ability to choose instruments and control sensi tivity and reactivity parameters. The next step was to insert audio from other times and places by playing field recordings (e.g.\, baby yaks in Tibet\, the 8-line in San Francisco)\, allowing the Haunted Garden to a ctively respond to the augmented sonic environments. \;\n \;\nSim ran will discuss the challenges of designing with sound\, and how he dev eloped “listening agents” who react and comment on sound in the environm ent. He will relate experiences—both as software developer and sound art ist—and explore sound as a medium. Topics will include what is sound scu lpture\, what challenges were uncovered in creating it\, whether the exp erience worked according to plan\, the challenges in developing applicat ions for these sorts of interactions\, the unforeseen consequences resul ting from initial forays into these kinds of devices\, and how an interf ace based on sound might change how we relate to sound and sonic devices . \;\n \;\nAbout the Speaker \;\n Simran Gleason is an artist a nd professional nerd. He started drawing the day after getting a master’ s degree in computer science (symbolic and heuristic computation) from S tanford and drifted through many media before arriving at his current fo cus: making algorithms that make music. Among his more successful instal lations is Haunted Garden\, a room that listens to you\, finds the notes in your conversation\, and uses them to compose an ambient sound and li ghtscape. He also did the generative music and light algorithms for SWAR M\, a gaggle of open source someday-autonomous spherical robots. His wor k has been shown in galleries in San Francisco and Palo Alto\, as well a s installations at Maker Fair\, Yuri’s Night\, Coachella\, and the speci al olympics of art: Burning Man.

We split time between finding inspiration a nd buckling down and getting things done. We split time between the wor k that we care about and well\, Real Life. When does looking for inspira tion become detrimental distraction? When does working for hours on end become hazardous and counterproductive? \;\n \;\nLet's all talk a bout how we deal with this in our daily work: how we stay focused\, how we stay excited\, how we budget our time and attention. I think it woul d be pretty educational to share and compare notes on how we all as deve lopers of all types actually split our time up and what kind of schedule s we maintain. \;\n \;\nSee you all soon!\n\nTags: programming\, g ame\, art\, design\, development\, videogames\, IGDA\n\nImported from: h ttp://calagator.org/events/1250463154 URL:http://pagdig.org SUMMARY:Year-End Portland Area Game Development Interest Group Roundtable +Meetup LOCATION:p:ear: 338 NW 6th Ave\, Portland OR 97209 US SEQUENCE:2 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT CREATED;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20130104T212920Z DTEND;TZID=America/Los_Angeles;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20130104T235900 DTSTART;TZID=America/Los_Angeles;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20130104T180000 DTSTAMP;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20130104T212920Z LAST-MODIFIED;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20130104T212920Z UID:http://calagator.org/events/1250463334 DESCRIPTION:We here at AFRU are gearing up for Byte Me! 2013. It was a gr eat show last year and we hope to make it bigger and better for this yea r. If you are not familiar with Byte Me! it is our annual exposition of technical art. So\, what is ‘Technical Art’ exactly? For the context of Byte Me we are defining it as artwork whose inspiration\, medium\, desig n or execution would be prohibitively difficult if not impossible to rea lize without the aid of or direct incorporation of technology. The goal of this show is to not only exhibit a narrow but emergent sub section of artwork but also to foster a larger and tighter community of geeky-arti sts and artistic-nerds.\n\nTags: hardware\, art\, free\, robotics\, hack ing\, culture\, physical computing\n\nImported from: http://calagator.or g/events/1250463334 URL:http://www.afrugallery.com/ai1ec_event/byte-me/?instance_id=58 SUMMARY:BYTE ME 2013 - Annual Exposition of Technological Art LOCATION:AFRU Gallery: 534 SE Oak Street\, Portland OR US SEQUENCE:1 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT CREATED;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20130309T014151Z DTEND;TZID=America/Los_Angeles;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20130313T163000 DTSTART;TZID=America/Los_Angeles;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20130313T083000 DTSTAMP;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20130309T014151Z LAST-MODIFIED;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20130309T014151Z UID:http://calagator.org/events/1250463795 DESCRIPTION:Semi-Permanent's purpose is to unite and inspire the diverse and exciting creative world by bringing together a panel of exceptionall y talented\, globally renowned speakers via a premium event experience.

Not to make prettier websites\, but to create art. Interactive and in finitely generative code art. \;\n \;\nBut fear not: though gettin g into programming can be incredibly intimidating\, code art\, is one pa th to coding that can be fun\, easy\, and instantly rewarding. John Brow n will show you some frameworks and sites that will get you started maki ng art quickly and easily. \;\n \;\nOccasionally\, a new discovery will come along that changes the way artists create. Pigments in antiqu ity or screen printing in the recent past have given artists a path to e xplore. Now computers\, and the frameworks created for them\, are hittin g the sweet spot of ease of use and power. Code art is still in its infa ncy\, and creative coding is the wild west. It’s all about exploring\, l ayering\, and trying new things. Any creative endeavor of the last 5000 years has a digital equivalent\, and there are myriad digital art paths that have no physical analogue. \;\n \;\nJohn Brown will show you how to get involved in creative coding. There is a great community local ly he’ll introduce you to. He’ll also talk a bit on the history of creat ive coding\, show you some of his work\, and talk about the future of co de art and how it fits into the greater art world. \;\n \;\nWhen y ou leave\, you’ll want to rush home and pick up a digital paintbrush and start making code art.\n\nTags: design\, web\, art\, code\n\nImported f rom: http://calagator.org/events/1250467903 URL:http://rfrshpdx.org/young-at-art/ SUMMARY:RefreshPDX: Young At Art – The Generative Generation LOCATION:Idealist: 209 SW Oak St Ste 600\, Portland OR 97205 US SEQUENCE:1 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT CREATED;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20150412T163030Z DTEND;TZID=America/Los_Angeles;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20150420T220000 DTSTART;TZID=America/Los_Angeles;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20150420T190000 DTSTAMP;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20150412T163030Z LAST-MODIFIED;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20150412T163030Z UID:http://calagator.org/events/1250468232 DESCRIPTION:PEOPLE DOING STRANGE THINGS WITH ELECTRICITY \;\n \;\nA ll meetings are open to the public.
