CAS Members Show 2024 Opening
Various Speakers

Summary

CAS Members Show 2024 Opening, led by Various Speakers including Computer Arts Society chair Sean Clark, marks the second annual members exhibition at the BCS in London. Clark opens by welcoming attendees and explaining that the society aims to establish a regular venue for contemporary and historic computer art, with this year's open call attracting over sixty applicants and producing twenty-nine selected works, up from twenty the previous year. He notes that the exhibition is currently limited to two-dimensional work but hopes to expand into three-dimensional, video and time-based pieces in future. Clark then presents the online and printed exhibition catalogue, which carries an ISBN and is deposited with the British Library, before inviting artists to speak briefly about their work. Contributions follow from practitioners exploring a wide range of techniques: algorithmic and generative systems, hand-drawn rule-based pieces, machine-learning style transfer, analogue drawing machines, audio-to-image mapping, microscopic imagery, computational pixel manipulation, and magic-square visualisations. The event mixes in-person and online audiences, encourages informal discussion, and concludes with thanks to the artists and an invitation to view the exhibition, download the catalogue, and consider submitting work the following year, when video submissions are expected to be included.
