AND + W2 is a four day programme of debates and artworks, constituting the only Games time cultural collaboration between the Vancouver 2010 and London 2012. It is produced by W2 and is thematically structured around the Abandon Normal Devices (AND) festival of new cinema and digital culture. AND is a Legacy Trust funded programme in England’s Northwest. Produced in association with FACT, Tenantspin and Dada for Vancouver 2010 and the London 2012 Cultural Olympiad programme in England’s Northwest.

 

What does it mean to be human in the 21st century? How are definitions of disability and ability being transgressed in art and sport? What is the role of science, technology and new media in establishing new norms? What are the characteristics of our new biotechnological economy? Speakers from the UK, Canada, Netherlands, and USA present daily debates, film screenings and parties on these three themes.

COMPETE: Faster, Higher, Stronger .

.

The Olympic Games are measures of human excellence but what happens when those measures are disrupted by self-augmentation and body modification? Our biological apparatus is in flux, vulnerable, yet re-imagined by technology. What will ability and disability mean in an era of genetically modified athletes and surgically sculpted children? How are artists contributing to this research and debate? For example, genetically screening for ‘perfect pitch’ may produce ideal singers, but whose ideal? Alternatively, what will the integration of future technology within biology mean for how humans communicate with each other via performances (dance, music or sport)? .

 

Panel presentation featuring Amber Case (USA) and Dr. Jim Rupert (Canada) with interrogation by Ruth Gould (UK) and Andy Miah moderating.

Reach is a large-scale interactive mural and musical instrument created for the Children’s Museum of Pittsburgh as part of the Tough Art residency program.

 

There are no visible electronics, but when users touch both the moon and a star (either alone or by holding hands with others) a tone is played.

A close-up shot captures an array of intricate 3D printed objects—ranging from geometric lattices to figurative sculptures—arranged on a black tablecloth at what appears to be a maker faire or tech exhibition. The shallow depth of field draws attention to the delicate textures and complex forms of the white plastic prints, while blurred background figures and informational handouts suggest an active, educational environment. The composition highlights the contrast between the organic, hand-crafted feel of the prints and the sterile, technical nature of their creation.

A 9-foot paper-and-wire sculpture, illuminated by 240 individually-programmed LEDs, is both a thing of beauty and a lesson in biology. Linked wirelessly to data from sensors in a nearby hydroponic garden, the lights in the sculpture illustrate the biological processes actually taking place in garden upstairs. Change the conditions in the garden—switch off the lights, lower the water levels, change the temperature—and the lights in the sculpture change as well.
