We have a new shorts cinema showing a rolling programme throughout the festival and we think it will be a great way to showcase the generative art world.
If you have something short (~1-15 mins) you'd like shown, please email your name, a title and a link to:
#emf2024 highlight: this velociraptor puppet by Laura Mathews. The attention to detail in the anatomy, articulation and naturalistic movement are incredible to behold! #emf#emfcamp

Tear down is kind of like that, except it’s not all going to one place, some is time dependent, the truck’s turned up too early, and now it’s started raining. Also everything is muddy, can only be transported with a particular combo of people and vehicles, or has a visiting member of the local wildlife. HQ has a pigeon.
If you have any positive vibes for the tear down crew, leave them here and we’ll make sure they’re passed on this evening when they get a chance to read them.
I'll be running a workshop on the Saturday, hosted by @FieldFX.
I'll share my enthusiasm for the #demoscene - the wonderful hobby where art and tech meet, supported by an amazing community.
I'll include a little bit about what it is, but mostly hands on, making some pretty stuff animate on screen with the retro-styled #TIC80. Participants will leave armed with the skills to keep building and desire to do so!
Spent the morning out in the rain cheering on the #edinburghMarathon#emf2024 runners with a Pride flag and a very site-specific sign
(standing on the corner where the last uphill of the course ends)
The arcade was great, filled mostly with modern games and game-like installations! Tesla coil music every night! <3 There was a lovingly-made on-site riddle game (about the murder of Clippy!), and at least two location-based games!
An honestly amazing program of talks, no wonder they rejected mine. :P Interestingly, there were multiple talks by popular British comedians/science educators, who were probably invited to speak. #emfcamp#emf2024
