I wish I could be there, I am currently in Berlin with Miles and Anette of Trampoline working on some new projects and plans so I won't be at FutureEverything. I look forward to hearing results from the meeting.
Many Thanks and Best Wishes

Public debate on collecting digital art to be held at UCLAN
The Harris Museum & Art Gallery and folly's Current: an experiment in collecting digital art project will culminate with a debate at the University of Central Lancashire on Tuesday 24th May 2011 from 9.30am - 2pm. The event will provide a platform to share the findings of the experiment with the wider public and sector professionals.
The day will start at the Harris Museum with breakfast and a private view of the exhibition, then participants will head over to the Mitchell & Kenyon cinema at the University of Central Lancashire for the debate. Chaired by Beryl Graham, Professor of New Media Art at University of Sunderland and co-editor of CRUMB, speakers will include Alex Walker, Head of Arts & Heritage, Preston City Council; Taylor Nuttall, CEO of folly, Lancaster; and artist Alison Craighead. Staff who worked on the project will outline the methodology used and present their findings – including the selection process, conservation issues and initial feedback before opening the debate to delegates. Lunch is included in the ticket price of £10 which provides an opportunity for networking and further informal discussion.
An optional session entitled ‘ Where do we go from here?’ will also be held from 2.15 – 4.30pm aimed mainly at sector professionals. Breakout groups will debate issues such as how we can strengthen the perceptions of digital art within the wider visual arts sector, and with the public, and the role both museums and the education sector will play in this.
Those interested in PURCHASING A TICKET for this event should contact Steph Fletcher in the first instancesteph.f...@folly.co.uk.
The Current project is the first of its kind in the UK - a pioneering practical case study in the collection of digital art which will encourage debate from visitors, artists and sector professionals about the process of integrating digital artworks into existing permanent collections.
On display until 4 June, the free exhibition at the Harris features the acquired artwork by Thomson & Craighead plus new and recent work by boredomresearch, Michael Szpakowski, James Coupe, and Harwood, Wright, Yokokoji. Each of the artists embraces technology in very different ways, from live networked installations through to moving image and sound. They have all exhibited internationally and are well respected within this field of work.
The project has been supported by the Friends of the Harris Museum, folly, Arts Council England & Renaissance Northwest.
