The four day event at the Showroom collated a series of practitioners, 
artists, theorists and historians, to examine, test and explore ideas 
stemming from cybernetics and information theory and more specifically 
the idea of feedback. The project was led by Steve Rushton, Dexter 
Sinister (David Reinfurt and Stuart Bailey), Marina Vishmidt, Rod 
Dickinson and Emily Pethick. The UK edition of Signal : Noise took place 
between 13-16th January 2011.

Described as an 'experimental cross-disciplinary research project', 
Signal : Noise was a fusion of talks, lectures, performances, screenings 
and debates that made diverse contemporary evaluations of the legacy of 
cybernetics using an inter-disciplinary approach. It tackled subjects as 
seemingly diverse as economic theory; urbanism and the arrival of the 
motor car in London; game theory; linguistics; media-performance art 
from the 1970's; and the problematic legacies of the recent UK arts 
funding system on artists – all viewed using the concepts and 
terminologies of cybernetics and systems.
