36 Hours in a Mystery Chair

The Story So Far

* 36 Participants - each learning new digital skills through an
innovative learning process designed to allow each to discover all they
need to know to create work in response to the idea of confinement.

* 36 Day Preparation - involving open learning process with facilitating
artists and digital technicians available in the building and online to support their learning.

* 36 Hour Lock In - over Easter weekend 1997.

Now Available

* 36mc OnLine (This Web Site) - including many examples of digital design work
carried out by trainees during the Lock in. Extra pieces of work were added daily
in the run up to the Blackwells exhibition (below).

In a comment on the confining nature of new media technologies the trainees
have used processor and memory hungry applications.

* 36mc Digital Seminar - consisting of links to some
three dozen online resources and points of view, created or collected specially
for the event, which each have some concern with confinement - from neonudity
through locked-in syndrome to online paternalism, now available at :
