"THE GEOCITIES OF THINGS"
The “Post Digital ramblings” by Russell Davies at the Strp festival were very inspiring to me. “We can make our own stuff. We can express ourselves. We can build what my friend Andy Huntington calls “The Geocities of Things”. We can add life and connectivity to the things in our lives like we were little Harry Potters”.
I am sharing his enthusiasm, at the beginning of the year 2012, when it comes to "Do It Yourself" prototyping and manufacturing through the development of digitally controlled machines but also acknowledging that since the world can now be found on the internet, the internet is about to invade the world.
We precisely opened our ArtLab in Paris to enable artists to experiment and create prototypes with 3D printers, Arduino, digital milling machines and to print their own electronic circuits. Today, the specificity of Digitalarti is to give artists a central place in these new production processes. We believe that by making new objects using their creativity, artists augment even more this new industrial revolution.
Let us meet in the spring of 2012 for testing the prototypes we are currently manufacturing in our new premises by the Canal Saint Martin.
In this first issue of the year, you will discover new contemporary artists, architects, designers, events not to be missed (exhibitions, festivals, symposiums...), specialized books in this field...
Wishing you an enjoyable read and a great year in 2012!
