| Area10 | ||
 | | Area10 is an artist-led initiative working from the vast premises of Eagle Wharf in Peckham Square, behind the landmark of Peckham Library. In 2002, the derelict premises were given by Southwark Council to a group of artists for temporary use for arts based works and events. Area10 was set up as an artist-led project, self-organising, self-curating and self-funding. Area10 has had a very organic and experimental structure as the project has always been deemed temporary. Three years down the line, Area10 has generated an extensive number and range of public events, which is exemplary of an experimental, cross-disciplinary and collaborative arts practice. Area10 is currently undergoing structural changes and will re-launch itself as part of the NODE.London season. Area10 will continue artist-led enquiry, artform cross-pollination, experimentation, new media, collaboration between artists, organisations, groups and communities and advance the notions of Area10 at its inception.

 | | dorkbotswiss people doing strange things with electricity dorkbotswiss presentations are meant to be fun, friendly, informal chats. they're short, just 20-30 minutes, including questions. the standard "artist talk" format (my life history in slides + narration) does not work very well at dorkbotswiss. what does work well is a casual talk about something you're currently interested in. pretend you're at a dinner party and someone has just asked you, "so what are you working on?" we encourage people to ask questions during the presentations, rather than always waiting until the end. about dorkbot.swiss dorkbot.swiss ist ein alle zwei monate stattfindendes meeting von künstlerInnen (sound/image/movement/ etc...), designerInnen, ingeneurInnen, studentInnen und anderen interessierten, die in schaffung und gestaltung elektronischer kunst ( im weitmöglichsten sinne) involviert sind. jedes dorkbot.swiss meeting präsentiert ein lokales, ein nationales und ein internationales projekt. die absicht von dorkbot.swiss ist es: * den künstlerInnen/programmiererInnen/ingeneuerInnen die möglichkeit zu bieten, ihre arbeit anderen künstlerInnen verschiedenster richtungen vorzustellen und mit ihnen zu diskutieren und zu betrachten. * ein forum für die präsentation neuer art works/ technologien/ software/ hardware zu etablieren

 | | The ICA is a long established institution (since 1947) that champions ground-breaking art in all its forms, including performance, film, music, installation, painting, sculpture and digital art. The initial remit, that still holds true today, is that of an 'artist's playground'. The ICA has been showing technology-based art work since the 1950s and was responsible for the seminal 'Cybernetic Serendipity' of 1968. Since 1997 the ICA has had a unique dedicated space to show the work of artists working with screen-based digital media. The theatre space is also utilised to show digital installations and performances on a regular basis. The ICA is the only publicly funded art institution in London with a regular programme of technology-based work encompassing screen-based, installation and performance arts.

| London Consortium @ ICA | ||
| The London Consortium is a multi-disciplinary graduate programme in Humanities and Cultural Studies. We are a collaboration between four of London’s most dynamic cultural and educational institutions: the Architectural Association, Birkbeck College (University of London), the Institute of Contemporary Art, and Tate. Unlike most traditional courses, our students benefit from being taught and supervised by both internationally renowned academics and experienced cultural practitioners working within our constituent institutions. Our teaching faculty and supervisors are drawn from a diverse range of institutions and disciplines, and include architectural theorists and designers, specialists in art history and curatorial work, cinema critics and film-makers, historians, literary scholars, artists, political theorists and philosophers. In addition we challenge and enable our students not just to work across academic disciplines, but to take their learning outside of the seminar rooms and lecture theatres. Our students are encouraged to make use of the resources of our collaborative institutions, developing ideas for projects through which the Consortium and its institutions can together produce events and work that satisfies the Consortium’s multi-disciplinary, cutting-edge, and challenging ambitions. Our students graduate with a Master of Research degree or a PhD from the University of London.
