New Media Trafford

Open to all filmmakers, video, animation and multimedia artists. A special event looking at exhibiting your work in public spaces as well as online.

As audiences and practitioners encounter artwork through new platforms, Kathy Rae Huffman - visual arts director of The Cornerhouse - will discuss the practical as well as the creative perpectives of the Bigger Picture project, which showcases art in public spaces.

We also have Paul Sermon (www.paulsermon.org) - Professor of Creative Technology at the University of Salford - who will discuss artists working in virtual environments - looking in particular at the Second Life project, Liberate Your Avatar, which involved artists working both online and in the urban environment at the same time.
