When we're worn,
Hacked hewn with constant service, thrown aside
To rust in peace, or rot in hospitals.
Hacking Arts (October 3-5), an annual student-run festival and hackathon hosted at the MIT Media Lab, marked the launch of MIT STARTUP. Hacking Arts features talks by entrepreneurs in the creative industries, tech-enabled live performances and art pieces, and demos by emergent start-ups. This year’s kick-off party at Microsoft’s Nerd Center featured a performance by Grammy-nominated artist Ryan Leslie and an ideation session by Kiran Gandhi, the drummer of MIA.
The following day, participants attended panels on Film, Music, Design, Virtual Reality, Fashion, Gaming, Performing Arts and Visual Arts, hearing from speakers such as Benji Rogers (CEO, Pledgemusic), Kevin Cunningham (Executive Artistic Director, 3-Legged Dog Productions) and Laird Malamed (COO, Oculus VR). Afterward, participants put their ideas into action during the high-voltage hackathon.
The 2014 Hackathon winners were LuxLoop (VHX Prize in Film, TV & VR), Harlequin (Most Creative), CUE (Most Disruptive) and Tomorrow Is Another Day (Best Overall Hack). A common thread among the winning hacks was how technology was used to promote human interaction or create analogue output. LuxLoop and Harlequin both used human motion to affect digital output. CUE, one of the finalists in the Pitch phase of the competition, designed a modular theatrical system consisting of wearable audiovisual hardware and a smartphone app to sequence, control and play user-programmed sound and light effects to enhance public theater. Tomorrow Is Another Day touted the idea “Turn your nothing into something,” as their project used a person’s daily “swipes” on touch-screen devices to transform daily online activities into abstract ink drawings.
