[NetBehaviour] TINT Arts Lab Opens its Doors with its First Season!

[Jonathan Munro]

We are delighted to present our newly opened TINT Arts Lab! Bringing  
TINT a signifying step forward to realise our core aims in fostering a  
strong,
sustainable and questioning media arts community!

The TINT Arts Lab is a platform that offers invited artists a space to  
present a new project in the form of a self contained blog. Its  
motivation is
to nurture an open and public discussion of the projects concept,  
context, development, presentation and documentation between the  
artists,
  a core team of commentators, which include Michael Demers, Susan  
Elizabeth Ryan, Greg J. Smiths and Pau Waelder and also the interested
media arts community (that’s you!). Please don’t shy away to express  
your own thoughts. Critical but fair feedback to the artist’s projects  
and
  the arts lab in general is highly appreciated. The arts lab is in  
its first season and we see it in a beta phase.

Born out of curiosity it shall remain an open platform in constant  
change. A probe that will help to learn more about media arts and its  
motivations,
modes of production, documentation, and reception in an age of crowd- 
sourced networked complexity.

This week the Arts Lab has opened its doors, ready to run its first  
season. Please join our residents in their open ended journey towards  
a new piece of work:
