About Galvanised
\n \n \n
\n Galvanised is an online exhibition displaying the work of 13 digital media artists completing their degrees at the University of Brighton.\n
\n The artists each come from different artistic and academic background, specialising in a variety of skills. \n\n The show delivers a diverse range of creative practices, such as interactive virtual \n installations, 3D environments, creative coding and machine learning.\n
\n Throughout the \n last year, the artists have adapted to new and unconventional ways of working, as a \n result of the pandemic. New challenges have provided new opportunities to consider the \n way we interact with digital art, and Galvanised brings this together with a range of \n immersive and interactive pieces.\n

You Are Online
\n\n \n\n
\n You Are Online is a website about how we engage with the modern internet. \n You play the role of the Default User, a grey character working productively at a desk, \n lost in the world of colours and experiences.\n However, as the User discovers, progress isn't always as great as it seems...\n
\n When we consume content online, we are distracted from the feelings of our body, leading us\n to forget our physical presence.\n Without this presence, our mind is held in the world of binary signals displayed by our screens.\n We are then carefully manipulated \n by the creators of modern web services, who have invested heavily in making products \n that trap our attention, keeping us entertained and engaged.\n
\n\n
\n \n \n
\n\n
\n This website reduces the participants humanity into a series of mindless interactions \n for the website's algorithms, mirroring how humans engage in the attention economy of today.\n The human is just another object in the internet's codes and analytics; their body is discarded.\n

The Snow Storm
\n \n\n
\n “The Snow Storm” is an interactive, Swiss themed, murder mystery game experience. \n The game is set in a castle in a mountainous region in the Alps in a period between the\n 1930’s and 1950’s. The narrative combines complete wackiness with Swiss folklore and \n extraterrestrial sightings around the area which it is based.\n \n The journey hints at the supernatural. So, what lies beyond the castle...?\n
\n \n Jack Myers is a digital media artist and producer. \n Having previously specialised in illustration, animation and video editing, \n throughout the MA he has developed skills in game design and development. \n His latest project “The Snow Storm” is a murder mystery puzzle portrayed in \n a video game experience, which he wrote and produced alone. His video game work \n is centred around creating an atmosphere and building \n a world for the player to enjoy.\n \n\n \n

#Hashtag

Haresmede
\n \n\n
\n Haresmede is a virtual installation inspired by the history and folklore of the New Forest. \n It presents artifacts of both historical stories and fantastical ones through the use of 3D \n scanned objects and entirely digitally created visual elements, alongside sound composed of \n both field recordings and artificially synthesized sound. This work aims to blur the \n boundaries of what is considered real by paralleling the tensions between fact and fiction \n with the integration of realistic and digital aesthetics.\n
\n \n Vincent Keep creates a range of digital work informed by a background in sound and noise\n art, and previous experience as a performance artist. His work abstracts queer \n aesthetics and wider academic research through experimental approaches to his use of\n technology. While a key focus in his work remains on the use of sound, Vincent \n explores a range of mediums such as visual data manipulation, 3D art, and game \n development technologies.\n \n\n \n \n

Bianhua
\n\n \n\n
\n This work has been driven conceptually by the artist's relationship with social media \n and online identity. For this reason, the environment is named 'Bianhua' which means\n a state of metamorphosis or transformation. It is representative of the artists own questions \n of a shifting online sphere. The piece involves poetry, sound, and abstracted nature \n to comment and reflect on our connection with the digitalised world. 'Bianhua' is a \n contribution to how we can attempt create virtual worlds through alternative interactions. \n
\n\n \n\n
\n The final piece uses a combination of software to experiment and combine sound, \n animation and poetry. This is delivered through a stereoscopic video \n environment produced in Cinema 4D and After Effects. \n

Homeostat Installation
\n \n\n
\n Homeostat Installation is a real-time installation where \n people’s movements within a gallery space are turned into noise data and then used to \n drive a point cloud. Two people within the gallery space are made to work together to \n balance their movement without being able to see each other. The results consider \n behaviour and interaction with the unknown, directly influenced by the cybernetic \n machine, the homeostat.
\n\n
\n The spectator’s movements are translated into audio and visuals \n that are projected into the space. On show in this exhibition is a virtual prototype \n for the installation, instead of real people’s movement, the virtual characters movement \n is computer generated in real-time, so in this version of the work the computer \n is in an unknown dance of agency with itself.\n

The Cozy Tapes

\n For the last 10 months, Omar Hamouda has been developing a videography project which involves\n the documentation of his daily life and activities during the pandemic, and where we have not\n had access to university facilities. The project incorporates elements of videography, \n photography, music production, where they are all brought into the digital art realm. \n The documentation is split into segments – starting from September 2020 up until right \n before the final unit hand in date in July 2021. The projects main aim was to find \n creative outlets within the simple everyday lives we all lead.\n

\n Molly’s biggest passion is combining the musical world with the digital art world.\n Her Magnum Opus is Stranded the Musical, as shown in this exhibition. Molly created \n this over a series of weeks using just her apartment and the sims as sets. \n This musical aims to show who Molly truly is. Showing a new vulnerable side to her. \n All expect one song are written by Molly. It is also filmed, edited, mixed and just \n about everything else by Molly. Molly hopes that one day she gets to perform this \n musical live.\n

The World of Go
\n\n \n\n
\n A myth says that two immortals observe the go board as they observe the world \n and their placement of white and black stones over 361 intersections represent \n the passage of the days and nights. About the origin of Go game, it also relates \n to the creation of the earth from chaos. As a fan of Go but also an artist, \n I attempt to reappear the myth via digital media technique. People can experience \n what the myth records by interacting with this work.\n
\n\n
\n In this work, you can see how a shan shui painting (a style of Chinese traditional \n painting), a map and a world (or a planet) is created based on the pattern of stones \n when the play proceeds.\n
\n \n \n\n
\n This work can provide people with a more intuitive way to comprehend the abstract beauty \n of harmony insides Go without tacit knowledge of Go. \n
