Arts Council National Portfolio Programme

henriettaknight News 30/03/201115/10/2018Arts Council England, National Portfolio Programme

We are pleased to announce that i-DAT’s application for Arts Council England National Portfolio Funding has been successful. Following a history of Grants For the Arts funding acceptance into the National Portfolio Funding Programme marks a significant point in i-DAT’s evolution. This Arts Council England investment will allow us to defrag and reboot and establish a sustainable platform to deliver our programme and services. We look forward to working with artists, organisations and audiences on a regional, national and international level.
i-DAT is dedicated to being a catalyst for creative experimentation – through collaborative, networked, and open innovation – to co-create social, cultural and economic benefit.
In a world of widely distributed knowledge, resources and skills, individuals and organisation cannot operate in isolation. i-DAT passionately believes that it must embrace the opportunities created by digital technologies to be collaborative, networked and open in order to sustainably co-create social, economic and cultural benefit for society in general and, in particularly, for current and future generations of young people.
We want to facilitate innovation in order to tackle the complex challenges facing individual, social, cultural and economic development in the 21st century. We will achieve this by creating environments (offline and online) and digital tools that empower the cultural, commercial and community sectors. We will provide access to new ideas, knowledge, data, technologies and practices through rich interactions with teaching, research and enterprise. We will support the evolution of this vision through a mixed economy of funding streams generated through the synergies between world-class research, creative and commercial productions, industrial collaborations and sponsorship.

8 February – 8 March. In residence developing a new work / 9 March – 6 April Installation of new work. For one month the London based artist Stanza will be developing a new piece of work in residence in Plymouth Arts Centres upper gallery. The concern of the residency is for the artist to create a new piece of work. Stanza specializes in net art, networked spaces, installations and performances. His works explore artistic and technical opportunities to enable new aesthetic perspectives, experiences and perceptions within context of architecture, data spaces and online environments. Stanza’s work crosses borders between artistic, technological and scientific sectors. Stanza creates participatory digital artworks that invite viewers to guide data flows or to simply observe self-generating compositions. His digital paintings shift through abstract and iconic patterns, which people can explore akin to virtual environments. He has won international praise and awards for his new media works that invite collaboration. Stanza is currently a recipient of an AHRC creative fellowship 2006-9 for a project called The Emergent City, researching sensors and the impact of live data in the architectural and urban environment and is based at Goldsmiths College University Of London. Stanza was also awarded a NESTA dreamtime fellowship in 2004. This prestigious award provided incoming investment, allowing experiments using new displays, sensors, and live data to make responsive spaces and interactive installations. This residency is made possible through the Distributed South initiative supported by Arts Council England to raise awareness of media arts in South of England. Distributed South is managed by SCAN and Space Media.
