RESEARCHES

DR. MIRELLA MISI/SLASH LAB AMSTERDAM

• INTERDISCIPLINARITY AND INTERACTIVITY IN THE CONTEMPORARY ART SCENE by Dr. Mirella Misi

• Through interdisciplinary research and team work, we develop our own software and interfaces in order to present interactive artworks. Our interest is to investigate the poetics that are made in the incorporation of interactive software programming as part of the creation’s process of artistic work, assuming thus the technology not as a tool but as a creative partner.
