Studio of Objects Wrap Up

Monday, 21 September, 2015

Well with the Paolozzi project (Studio of Objects) finally finished, the start of the summer saw the final wrap up “event”. This was held at the suave and swanky Institute of Contemporary Arts on Pall Mall with views over Horse Guards Parade, the London Eye and, well, just about everything in central London. The beta trial version of the app with 3D navigable studio and links through “portals” of content about the art and life history of Paolozzi, along with recordings of him, was available on a number of iPads that were being demoed by some young volunteers. There was also live screencasting via a projector on to the wall (see photo). Dr Chris Horrocks (Kingston lead) gave an august introduction to the evening before drinks and nibbles led to deep conversation for all.

Some fantastic feedback from users on the beta and a hugely successful launch.
