Imprecise with Precise Tools

The body of work in this exhibition has been created using Processing (open source generative design software) with CNC and laser machines. Solely produced during a three-day staff / student workshop, the pieces aim to exploit the clash between digital & analogue. This investigation has been led by guest designers Rob Laux (Berlin) and Professor Steffi Husslein (Magdeberg Institute for Industrial Design) with Dan Robinson and Cheryl Huntbach (Leeds College of Art).

Participants-

Matthew Parks Paula Chambers Joanna Geldard James Smart,

Why should artists use CNC machinery, code and programming? The coding for the input side is new, almost none of the participants have experience in developing complex scripts to feed the computer. So in programming terms the results are very basic and the quality of expression is constrained to the basics. The challenge is to develop an artistic standpoint. The use of CNC machinery for output was limited in the same way like the input, as it is complicated to direct a CNC router to make moves. Manual control of a tool is much more direct. So for everybody it felt like drawing a picture without using their hands, guiding the brush only with the lips. After getting over this frustration

Professor Steffi Husslein (Magdeberg Institute for Industrial Design)

Processing is an open source programming environment for people who want to create images, animations, and interactions. With the coding based system processing converts the data in generated information. Data in many formats can be imported, manipulated, and exported. The potential of the software environment of Processing combined with the CNC or photo-etched process of "tooling" (milling, drilling, shaping and sketchSing) opens new challenges for designers. The Processing based sketches becomes "tactile" with material properties. Thank you for the invitation.

DAY ## YEAR, BA Art & Design Interdisciplinary Studio

*Flocking: By the means of an electrically charged gun the technique fires coloured fibres at a glued surface or object, to create a soft nap. B.A (Hons) Art & Design (Interdisciplinary) hosted a two day Flocking Workshop delivered by Belgium designers; Rudi Respeel and Jeff Rutten from Mechelen, Belgium. The workshop involved students and staff from the Interdisciplinary programme, Foundation, Visual Communication and metal and ceramics workshop areas. Works were produced across print, 3D design, jewellery, found objects & textiles. Both Jeff and Rudi run independent design companies and teach on the Interior Design / Furniture degree programmes at Lessius Design & Technology, Mechelen, Belgium; part of the GIDE; Group for International Design Education. Since the 18th Century flockings aesthetic has developed from an aristocratic sense of style to become associated with kitsch and common mass

produced goods. The technique, process and effects offer iconoclastic, playful and flirtatious approaches to decoration and design. Rachael Forster Level 4 student studying B.A (Hons) Art & Design (Interdisciplinary) Programme and workshop staff plan to reciprocate teaching & research via the Erasmus Exchange in 2013, as part of the Erasmus Mobility programme. This production was made possible via the Erasmus Mobility Programme & GIDE; Group for International Education.

If youre wondering what you can flock, the answer is probably anything. Flock has the power to make anything cool, and yet it might be about time to reclaim flock from the kitsch, I for one want to continue using it into my project. The process itself is a kind of magic, and immensely fun; its a guarantee you will seriously consider flockingeverythingyouown.

V & A Design In Action Workshops February 2012.

Rachael Hewitt (Level 05)

Group for International Design Education:

Duncan of Jordanstone College of Art, Dundee and V & A , Dundee hosted this years annual GIDE (Group for International Design Education) Workshop and Exhibition. This involved 170 art and design students and 28 of their tutors; from seven European countries. GIDE is an invaluable experience for young designers wanting to have a taste of an international and intercultural design event. Started in 2003, the GIDE project engages students in both the second and third year of their course with long distance briefs and international workshops. The new V & A, Dundee was the source of this years workshop theme; Design In Action. The event included keynote speeches from designers, academics and curators across the design industry and the V & A. The event addressed ideas in relation to contemporary design practice, exploring creative strategies and processes and considering how to address the needs of diverse arts communities and institutions. Second year students and third year exhibitors from our BA (Hons) Art & Design (Interdisciplinary) and BA (Hons) Interior Design programmes spent five days at the international event at the Duncan of Jordanstone College of Art in Dundee. Students and tutors worked together in mixed nationality teams to collaborative on a common theme, and asked to creatively respond to a brief. Most of the groups consisted of 15 students and 2 members of staff. The briefs ranged from creating a site specific installation for a period building, to making a piece of conceptual work that represented the ethos of GIDE. Each group was supplied with basic materials and used their creative, problem solving and negotiation skills to produce a final piece that was presented to over 200 people, including fellow students and staff. Third year students across all GIDE institutions work on a creative brief in the first semester. Third year students; Adam Cluley, Elisa Heikkila and Patrick KirkSmith were selected to exhibit their work from the GIDE brief: Creativity for Local Enterprise. The work ranged across video, object, performance and photography.

ThiswasthefirstexperienceIvehadwithworking with a large amount of people to create something. It opened me up to taking on board others ideas and together solving problems that occur throughout the duration of the workshop. The prospect of studying abroad for a couple of months is something I were unsure about doing before attending the GIDE workshop, after meeting people from all over the world I want to go on to do the Erasmus exchange with a university that is part of the GIDE collective.

Cheryl Huntbach (Programme Leader) Varsha Couhan Elissa Heikilla Gina Stockwell Katie Broadley

Both Interdisciplinary and Interior Design at Leeds College of Art found the workshops really challenging, demanding and rewarding in the best possible sense. As a teacher I learned a great deal in terms of managing, motivating and enthusing an international group of students; and really benefitted from working with staff outside of my specialism and cultural experience. The workshop offered opportunities to discuss and initiate future research and teaching exchanges across Europe.

Monday 27th Feb, BA Art & Design Interdisciplinary Studio

with Paula Chambers

Regretfully, Hopes and dreams cannot be exchanged or refunded A discussion with artist Paula Chambers on her work and current exhibition to at Leeds College of Art New Gallery. Introduction Paulas work concerns itself with the both nostalgic domestic crafts and the mundanity of motherhood tasks The hobby crafts of motherhood brought about in the Victorian era depicting nostalgic middle class depictions of mother and child building on the truth of Madonna and child. She focuses on the class distinction in child activity and considers the loss of such hobby crafts in contemporary society due to the work place and examines shifting perceptions on the expectations of Motherhood activity. She reflects on the myth of conditioned activities as part of how society values motherhood and remarks on the myth of their actual presence. Her work consists of Nazi baby grows, Copper bonnets and even a Toast crochet piece. Discussion Retrospective So can you explain to us what you are considering for the exhibition?

Do you think your work strives towards a matriarchal society? not straightforward. Interested in what female actually is. Lots of ways we can think about that. Contemporary society operates feminist philosophers and fluidity and operations language and permeating boundarieslike to see that developing. Not so rigid. Multiple things on board. Female accused plural/multiple French feminist. Language transforming activity boundaries delineated. Knowing where to put them. Irigary and generation of failure. French feminism seeped through into thought (everyday). Unexpectedly. Feminist art there are lots of ways to read art. Contextualising art as a result during the 60s and 70s. Dominance of something.

This exercise was not so much a group critique of students work, butmoreadiscussiontoreflectonprocessesandconceptsthatcould bebeneficialorspringboardideasforotherstudentsprojects.The reason for the pigeon holing (sorry, grouping) of stu dents was to gather engaging discourse from like-minded students that were essentially relevant to their personal projects. Here is a summary of what went on over the two days these crits were conducted. Lauren kicked off the meeting with a spy-hole camera so theres someimagesandfilmavailableofthismeeting,alongwithsomefilms that were discussed in development.

Whilst the group ponder over this question, Lauren produces a collection of letters that contain her true feelings for virtually everyone in her life whilst the recipient is asked not to open the envelope to see inside.

Maybe its about willpower, maybe its about control.

Playing with technology brings [Andrew] interaction with space. As we move away from physicality we ourselves become the performance in our own pantheon. We all star in our own films. Watch each others films and freak out.

Looking at Charlotte Halsteads work particularly her crochet brain this theme is evident; in the other three students work this was a little bit harder to spot.

Questions. One question can spawn many more questions, it can open up discussions, and it can also succumb to ridicule, but a question will almost always enlighten. Adam has always retained a critical outlook on everyday life and this is reflected in his practice. As an interadisciplinary artist, his work tends to take a more conceptual approach that is realised in a variety of media including photography, video, publications, drawings, collaboration, and occasionally 3D forms. The focus of his work typically revolves around notions of ideology and utopia and is focussed towards a questioning of the everyday - more specifically space, how we relate to it, and how we participate within it. Over the past few months Amy has gained, improved and consolidated existing skills and techniques within the area of sewing, gaining more confidence with a sewing machine. Art had expanded from writing her thoughts in a journal to creating sewn art works. Letting the stitch tell the story, expression is key the more stitch is used the more emotion is shown. Amy uses processes such as photography this is a way of recording her work. Screen printing is another process she uses, whether its image or text, they all are then altered in to a range of mixed media fabric art works reflecting extracts from her journal.

The past few years has encouraged a number different ways in which to approach, design and develop a variety of documents. This process helps me expand my ideas in a way that is effective as well as inspiring further ideas. What Im interested in the most is expanding on the digital techniques that Ive adopted in my work, and other forms of digital media and music that generated or have helped to inform my practice. Working in this way offers a new platform, speeding up the process and formation of ideas, I find that they are a lot more effective perhaps in most cases in both refining and conveying the intended idea.

April Comer questions the institution of art exploring repetitive process and perception of environment using existing visual connotations of space, context and materials within the public realm. Subjecting natural and found materials to the conditions and processes of manufacture, Comer question the value of the art object and its origin through the process of three-dimensional manipulation, reproduction and repetition. Porcelain slip casting is a process that she frequents, utilizing the fragility and translucency of the material, whilst subverting understandings of meaning through the perceived value and purity of white.
