Dr Joasia Krysa / Dr Anya Lewin / Dr Geoff Cox / Hugo de Rijke / Phil Ellis / Robert Jackson / Andrew Prior / Magda Tyżlik-Carver / Dan Livingstone / Helen Pritchard Individual research interests: → Dr Joasia Krysa is interested in the emerging critical discourse around curating and network technologies, and has a particular interest in new models of curatorial practice using online platforms and distributed systems. project documentation >> → Dr Anya Lewin's practice range from experimental narrative and translation to working with performance and new technologies and film making in the digital age. project documentation >> → Dr Geoff Cox is interested in the critical discourse around software art/culture, the application of historical materialist and post-Marxist thinking, and speculations on the performative and transformative action of code. He is a resaecrher at Aarhus University (DK) and also chair of cultural studies, Transart Institute (DE/US). project documentation >> → Hugo de Rijke is interested in media law and the inter-relationships between law, literature and film. Particular interests include the reform of copyright and obscenity law, with reference to the Open Source and Creative Commons movements, digital activism, free speech and moral autonomy. → Phil Ellis is concerned with the emerging political and social implications of online audiovisual activities. He is currently engaged in a practice-based PhD, researching into affect and agency at the site(s) of new television, explored through the reenactment of historical experimental events. → Robert Jackson is interested in the procedural politics of generative and emergent behaviour created by complex digital structures: namely, software art and videogames. He is currently engaged in a theoretical-based PhD, researching digital artworks and videogames that have independent political agency in themselves, irreducible to the deliberate or accidental relations which created them.project documentation >> → Andrew Prior explores the ways in which the cycles of (re)mediation evolve new meanings and aesthetics, with an emphasis on sound practice within an interactive - and at times performative - audio-visual context. → Magda Tyżlik-Carver is interested in models of curatorial practices and socio-technological platforms that facilitate wide public interaction and co-production. She is also interested in the sites of those practices (both online and offline) through critical consideration of those spaces as the 'commons'. She is currently engaged in a practice-based PhD focusing on the specifics of curatorial practice within network capitalism. → Helen Pritchard is an artist and writer. Her work often takes the form of videos, performance, texts and radio work which explores ideas of physical presence/absence within systems. → Dan Livingstone is establishing new interaction models for adaptive social composition and is particularly interested in conscious and subconscious interaction within technologically mediated environments. He is also a member of ICCMR the Interdisciplary Center for Computer Music Research (Plymouth) and EMF the Electronic Music Foundation (New York).
