Summer Sessions 2010
July / August 2010
V2_Lab

After a productive series in 2009, the V2_Lab’s programmers and
technicians are skipping their vacations again this year to throw
themselves into the Summer Sessions. Four artists will come to the
V2_Lab for a brief but intense residency in which they will use its
tools to realize projects. This year’s participants are Joachim
Rotteveel, Ivan Henriques, Anouk Wipprecht and Mark Shepard.

Their completed projects will be presented at V2_ as part of the
Test_Lab program and also at the 16th International Symposium on
Electronic Art (ISEA 2010 Ruhr) in Essen, Dortmund and Duisburg, Germany
in late August.
