Designers, architects, biologists, scientists… Do you want to join the sustainable material revolution? 
The Barcelona designers of the “Remix el Barrio”, winner of the S+T+ARTS 2021 Prize, invite you to participate in a Food Waste Biomaterial Workshop. 
A sensorial demonstration and hands-on experimentation of material design through biorecipes and manufacturing processes that promote sustainability, circularity, biodegradability and zero waste using food waste as a resource for regenerative design. 
This workshop is co-organised by Wallonie Design, with the support of the Plan de Relance de la Wallonie.

La Bourse

Matt Adams co-founded Blast Theory in 1991. The group make interactive art to explore social and political questions.
Blast Theory has shown work at the Venice Biennale, Sundance Film Festival and Tate Britain. The group collaborate frequently with the Mixed Reality lab at the University of Nottingham and Matt has co-authored 45 academic papers. Awards include the Golden Nica at Prix Ars Electronica, the Nam June Paik Art Center Award and four BAFTA nominations.
Matt has curated at Tate Modern and at the ICA in London. He has lectured at Stanford University, the Royal College of Art and the Sorbonne.

Matt Adams

Brian Eno describes interactive art as “unfinished”. In this workshop participants will be introduced to Blast Theory’s approach for creating interactive artworks. Matt will explain how Blast Theory combine games design, theatrical techniques and contemporary art to make works that are unique in form and invite the public to take risks.
You will learn strategies for thinking about interactivity and you will design and test your own interactive experience.

Thomas Piquet
Engineer-researcher at Metalab of SAT. PhD in microprocessor architecture and specialized in embedded computers. 
After several years working in the industry (cell phones, intelligent public displays&#8230;) and while continuing to develop his artistic skills (in composition, sound design, mixing and acoustics), the opportunity arose to combine everything and return to the research field with SAT&#8217;s Metalab. 
His research interests target the reduction of the infrastructure needed to create immersive spaces. Thanks to embedded computing, the costs are greatly reduced (in economic and energy terms) while having a minimal impact on performance. 
At the same time, he participates with the Silicon Beats collective in multiple live cine concerts and electronic music collective jam performances.
Émile Ouellet-Delorme
Developer-researcher at the Metalab of SAT. He joined the team in 2018 after completing two diplomas in software engineering and digital music respectively. Over the past few years, he has worked on software for both visual and audio immersion, and his specialty resides with physical modelling of acoustics. On a personal level, he&#8217;s dabbled with audio composition and improvisation of various styles for over a decade.

Thomas Piquet & Émile Ouellet-Delorme

During this workshop, we will be using off-the-shelf hardware and open-source software to create an interactive and immersive experience from scratch, in an impromptu space. While doing so, we will be learning about the tools and processes available to orchestrate the basic elements such as evaluating the available space, setting up projection mapping, calibrating video projectors and sound equipment and employing a software pipeline to glue it all together. The participants are welcome to contribute their own creative content (video and audio). We will be able to use and display it in our immersive space.
