TV21: innovative and creative engagements with new audiences and user communities

TV21项目建立在作为AHRC支持的倒带项目一部分而进行的工作的基础上，并以1990年的一个名为Telly Pieces的早期项目为灵感。ReWind项目是一个研究项目(2004--正在进行中)，它提供了一个研究资源，通过具体调查艺术家最初20年的视频作品，解决英国电子媒体艺术演变的历史知识差距。它参与了与新受众和用户社区的创新和创造性接触，这激发了影响的途径。该项目已经成功地保存和存档了400多件这一时期艺术家的作品，并建立了一个在线数据库，其中包含每件作品的信息和转折点。最初的电视作品项目是为第四频道委托创作的一系列艺术家作品的伴奏项目。这些作品统称为《电视干预》，于1990年在倒带研究项目涵盖的时期结束时委托进行展示，其中包括许多出现在倒带档案馆中的艺术家。该项目的电视作品方面有来自斯特拉斯克莱德地区的近300名年轻人参与制作8x4分钟的视频艺术作品，这些作品在国际展览和节日中展出。其中一个项目也被开发为与其他电视中断一起出现在电视上。倒带研究概述了艺术家们在探索新媒体时的作品，当时他们的实践非常创新和实验性，我们现在希望通过与邓迪市的年轻人一起的一系列项目来重新认识这种实践及其创作方法的一些意义。与Dundee当代艺术(该市一家大型建筑艺术中心)合作-我们将通过一系列研讨会介绍这些艺术家的作品，这些研讨会将使用倒带档案馆，旨在将当代和历史的媒体艺术方法联系起来。这些工作坊将致力于创造一系列新的作品，呼应这些早期艺术家的方法中嵌入的实验。他们专注于培养一种与这些早期艺术家的作品相呼应的对新技术的创造性态度，他们将使用通过技术进行创造性创新的概念，这既是一种创造性的行动，也是一种意识形态行动。知识交流和参与将通过与DCA的熟练教育团队合作来促进，他们在与各种各样的人合作方面非常有经验，向不同的受众介绍复杂和复杂的文化理念。将通过突出这些年轻人的生活、他们的技术以及他们对周围文化世界的批评，将当代背景带入该项目。将创作出与早期作品的个人、政治和形式考虑相呼应的作品，这些作品将在DCA大楼及其周围的电影院、展览空间、活跃的在线空间展出，并由BBC Four播出。参赛者将从已经参与DCA的广泛用户基础中挑选出来，既通过个人关系也通过组织联系。DCA有一个青年大使团队，这些青年做出积极的节目决策，并为DCA计划提供背景和批评。DCA还与当地许多学校、青年组织和社区中心建立了良好的联系-其中许多人积极参与一年一度的探索电影节-在DCA举行的苏格兰面向年轻观众的国际电影节。

The TV21 project builds on the work undertaken as part of the AHRC supported Rewind project and takes as its inspiration an earlier project from 1990 called Telly Pieces. The Rewind project is a research project (2004-ongoing), that is providing a research resource to address the gap in historical knowledge of the evolution of electronic media arts in the UK, by investigating specifically the first two decades of artists' works in video. It has partaken in innovative and creative engagements with new audiences and user communities which stimulate pathways to impact. The project has successfully preserved and archived over 400 works by artists' from this period and hosts an online database containing information and ephemera on each work.The original Telly Pieces project was a companion project to a series of artists works commissioned for Channel 4. These works, collectively titled 'Television Interventions' were commissioned for presentation in 1990 at the end of the period covered by the Rewind research project and featured many of the artists who appear in the Rewind archive. The Telly Pieces aspect of the project involved nearly 300 young people from the Strathclyde area working to produce 8 x 4 minute video art works which were featured in exhibitions and festivals internationally. One of the projects was also developed to appear on television alongside the other Television Interruptions.The Rewind research profiled the work of artists exploring a new medium at a time when their practice was extremely innovative and experimental and we now wish to recapture some of the significance of this practice and its creative methods through a series of projects with young people in the City of Dundee. Working with Dundee Contemporary Arts (a large building-based arts centre in the city) - we will introduce the work of these artists through a series of workshops using the Rewind archive which will be aimed at bridging the contemporary and historical approaches to media arts. These workshops will build towards the creation of a body of new works that will echo the experimentation embedded in the methods of these earlier artists. Focused on developing a creative attitude towards new technology that echoes the work of these earlier artists, they will use the concept of creative innovation through technology that is both a creative and ideological action. Knowledge exchange and engagement will be facilitated through working with the DCA's skilled education team who are very experienced in working with a wide variety of people, introducing complex and sophisticated cultural ideas to diverse audiences. The contemporary context will be brought to the project through a foregrounding of the lives of these young people, their technologies and their critiques of the cultural world around them. Works will be created that will echo the personal, political and formal considerations of the earlier work and these will be exhibited in and around the DCA building in its cinemas, exhibition spaces, active on-line spaces and broadcast by BBC Four. They will also be available to view online.Participants will be drawn from the wide user base that already engage with DCA, both through individual relationships as well as organisational connections. DCA has a team of Young Ambassadors - young people who make active programming decisions and provide context and critique to the DCA programme. DCA also has well-established links with many local schools, youth organisations and community centres - many engaging actively with the annual Discovery Film Festival - Scotland's International Film Festival for Young Audiences that takes place at DCA.
