When looking at art people often like to ask, “What does it mean?” Join Artists of Utah tonight at co-lab’s presentation of C:\/Art\/Run and you’ll also be asking, “What does it do?”<\/p>\n

This one-night-only show features collaborative arts\/tech projects by students in the CS5789\/Art4455 course at the University of Utah. This is a cross-college course\u00a0taught by Erik Brunvand and Paul Stout that includes both art students and engineering students working together to build computer-controlled kinetic artworks.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Kinetic art contains moving parts or depends on motion, sound, or light for its effect. An embedded system is a special-purpose computer system (microcontroller) designed to perform one or a few dedicated functions, often reacting to environmental sensors. It is embedded into a complete device including hardware and mechanical parts rather than being a separate computer system.<\/span><\/p>\n

“Kinetic art using embedded control is a marriage of art and technology,” says Brunvand. “Artistic sensibility and creativity are required for concept and planning, and computer science and engineering skills are required to realize the artistic vision. However, these different skills are often taught in extremely different parts of a university campus.<\/span> This cross-disciplinary collaborative course is an attempt to bridge that gap. It pairs computer science students with art students to engage in joint engineering design and creative studio projects. These projects combine embedded system design with sculpture to create kinetic art. Students in the course explore interfacing of embedded computer systems with sensors and actuators of all sorts.” <\/span><\/p>\n

Join us\u00a0 Thursday, April 30, for the newest installment<\/span> of co-lab, part of Artists of Utah’s continuing effort to encourage collaborative art projects in Utah’s arts communities.<\/p>\n
