On December 4th, 2020 at 10:15 am, Mattia Carretti (fuse* Founder / Director), Luca Camellini (fuse* Founder / Director) and Samuel Pietri (fuse* Research / Creative Technologist) will hold an on-line seminar titled “Art and technology: a multidisciplinary approach to creative production”.

The lecture will focus on the history and evolution of fuse* and on the in-depth study of some principles that underlie the studio’s modus operandi, through the description of the creative process that led to the realization of some of the most representative projects, as well as the work of technological exploration and artistic research done in recent years.

Multiverse and Dökk, two of the studio’s most iconic productions, will be described in their complexity and peculiar mixture of multidisciplinary languages and scientific references, with a specific focus on audio experimentation and interaction technologies developed in Real-Time.

Through the introduction of some recent projects, including Artificial Botany, Mimesis and Treu, it will be outlined an overview on the technologies that the studio is currently experimenting in the field of Machine Learning, generative design, photogrammetry and Data Analysis.

fuse* is a studio and production company at the intersection of art and science, exploring the expressive potential by the creative use of emerging technologies. Since inception, the studio’s research has focused primarily on the production of installations and live media performances which instill wonder and motivate audiences to challenge what is possible. As the studio evolved, creation of new projects became more holistic and placed increasingly higher value on pure experimentation. The objective of fuse* is to push past accepted limits, spur empathy and seek out new interplay between light, space, sound, and movement. fuse* maintains close ties to its community, by developing, supporting, and promoting projects with the intent of propagating culture and knowledge. In this vein, fuse* has co-produced NODE, an electronic music and digital arts festival, since 2016.  Over the years, fuse* has exhibited and performed internationally at art institutions and festivals including Mutek, TodaysArt, Sónar Istanbul, Artechouse, STRP Biennial, RomaEuropa, Kikk, Scopitone and the National Centre for the Performing Arts of China.

The event will be held online via Webex
