Gallery premier @ TEDxLSU 2016: Art of the app

2/1/2016

 
Words by Morgan Kastner

Art of the app is a gallery show about the creative potential of mobile applications curated by Louisiana State University Digital Art faculty and graduate students. In a world with more mobile devices than people, mobile apps have not only become a means of communicating and sharing information but also a widespread medium for artistic expression. In addition to allowing for the rapid consumption of static works, apps are uniquely capable of enabling new forms of interactive, participatory, and generative art. Through the fusion of art and code, artists utilize an array of sensors and inputs such as GPS, accelerometers, cameras, touch screen, and wifi to bridge vast interconnected networks and individual experience.

Works chosen for the show include applications that push the boundaries of electronic art, music, design, and literature on platforms such as Apple iOS, Google Android, and the mobile web. The show is a feature of the TEDxLSU 2016 event which will be held in the LSU Union Art Gallery on March 5.  Select pieces of “Art of the app” resonate with this year’s TEDxLSU theme of how questioning is at the heart of learning and understanding and how asking “why” sparks change in our community and our world.
