With support from the California Arts Council, ZERO1 – THE ART AND TECHNOLOGY NETWORK will run a pilot workshop series, that will launch a youth-led mixed reality lab, starting in the Fall of 2019.
ZERO1 will implement the arts education program to encourage the creative development of Mission District youth aged 15-18, through art thinking and technical skills training in mixed reality. Upon completion of the workshops the youth cohort will then present their work at a showcase event.
Arts Education: ZERO1 supports the development of creative skills in emerging media and socially-engaged arts through talks, workshops, incubators, mentorship, and professional development experiences.
Public Art: ZERO1 produces community-engaged public art projects at varied scales, from augmented reality street interventions and robotic sculptural installations to digital building modifications and ephemeral sky art. Through artist-led creative collaborations, we connect artists and communities for positive social change through experiences in public space throughout the San Francisco Bay Area and beyond.
International Exchange: ZERO1 coordinates international artist exchanges that encourage mutual understanding and cross-border collaboration between creative communities around the globe. Our flagship creative exchange program, American Arts Incubator (AAI), was developed in partnership with the U.S. Department of State’s Bureau of Educational and Cultural Affairs.
