for the InterAccess Interactive Art Workshop Series: Summer Edition
InterAccess's Interactive Art Workshop Series provides artists with the tools needed to begin exploring the creative uses of technology. Participants gain a solid technical foundation for realizing their artistic vision. Our workshops demonstrate how a computer can communicate with and integrate visuals, audio and electronics. InterAccess emphasizes production strategies for artworks that take place in real space and real time, including
performance, interactive installation, audio, video, and kinetic or robotic sculpture and installation.

Description: In the PhoEf workshop participants will explore the interdepending relationship between people, photovoltaics and light as a primary resource. Also the opportunities and limits of low levels of electricity will be explored.
The workshop starts with a hands-on session where playful observations and interactions with light are followed by experiments with various solar energy technologies and low power devices (without battery back up). We will design a simple set up, calculate the power requirements and measure the power output. The session takes place indoors as well as outdoors.
The practical part is followed by a theoretical discussion that contextualizes photovoltaics against the backdrop of access to energy in the post-fossil fuel society.
The workshop participants will have the possibility to interact with light under various conditions,use solar cells for producing electricity for low power devices and do the necessary measurements and calculations. Finally, they will have the opportunity to discuss the conditions of future production and distribution of electrical energy.
No preexisting knowledge is required. Motivation is the only prerequisite.
