AAAS 2015 Annual meeting
Knot Network is a large-scale, co-created artwork built through a multitude of simple yet unique contributions from many individuals. Upon closer inspection, Knot Network is more than spectacular art; it is a tool. The art-making process allows for any number of people to connect more deeply with one another in a fun, non-intimidating environment, while the seemingly whimsical outcome reveals a data visualization of significant connections amongst participants

Room for big Ideas/Yerba Buena Center for the Arts/ San Francisco
January 30th Opening reception 6-9pm.
Performance by Tina Matthews and eve Warnock at 7pm
TRANSFLUX explores the themes of biomimicry and interconnectedness between inner worlds and outer worlds, between the largest (cosmos) and smallest (microcosms) realms known to humans. From bios, meaning life, and mimesis, meaning to imitate, biomimicry serves as a powerful tool for discovering sustainable solutions to modern dilemmas by emulating nature’s time-tested patterns and symbiotic strategies. Incorporating the evolved wisdom of plants, animals, and microbes with findings from disciplines like astrophysics, engineering, sociology, genomics, and cellular biology, the installations convey “living technologies” that can enhance everything from personal well-being and resource utilization to urban planning and social services, all within an ecologically-minded framework
i and i is a performance piece co-created by Tina Matthews and eve Warnock incorporating unique sound, movement, and costume. The piece will premiere at the Yerba Buena Center for the Arts in conjunction with the Transflux gallery opening on January 30th 2015 at 7pm. The vocalizations and soundscape will be amplified throughout the gallery.

How does one travel by water? alas… but with a boat! Inspired by the Rime of the Ancient Mariner.

Open Cities/ Yerba Buena Center for the Arts/ San Francisco
HERD presents its next phase with the introduction of HERD: Ways/ walls & windows, debuting at Yerba Buena Center for the Arts the evening of October 4. As a corollary to the evening performance, HERD: Ways /walls & windows is an interactive installation that asks questions about the behavioral and emotional responses of animals and humans to changes in confinement, connectedness, perspective, flow, and hierarchy. The project activates through man-made & man-moved modular walls that form and reform to recreate spatial concepts in urban environments. These walls guide human movement and flow, using structures based on animal corralling systems to explore future shapes of urban design.

We will be performing HERD:EMERGENCE
The first Life Art Science and Technology (L.A.S.T.) expo will celebrate the confluence of art with the multiplicity of new media technologies and nascent sciences that are transforming sociality and experience in the 21st century.
With a focus on the potential of interdisciplinary forms of art-making for audience engagement, this first exhibition will concentrate on projects by artists, engineers and scientists whose work strives to go far beyond the rhetoric of interactivity and ‘high-tech.’ Rather, these projects attempt to engage in more nuanced forms of audience engagement, building upon the avant-garde artistic program that co-evolved with the social upheavals of the 20th century, while assimilating theories and tools developed through the various fields of science and technology in recent decades.

Lighthouse Point / Abbott Lighthouse
Art / Light / Sound / Performance / Water & Ocean Ecology / Community
HERD:EMERGENCE In a fantastical multi-media performance, eve Warnock and LUDIKA will bring the consequences of a polluted ocean to life with the emergence of an evolved sel-forganized species from our oceans. Using researched-based algorithms to inform movement, these species will evolve and transform in front of the audience. Compelling costumes, set, sounds, and projections will allow these organisms to dwell, feed, and reproduce among us.
Through a partnership between the UCSC Digital Art & New Media graduate school program, the Openlab collaborative research group and the city of Santa Cruz, artists & scientists will join together to create a series of events focused on local water issues. These events will highlight the relationships between our fresh water and ocean systems with a emphasis on ecology and sustainability. Our research is focused through the lenses of art, science and interdisciplinary collaboration. lighthousebloom.com
