SUMMARY:The Royal Standard: A Questionable Companionship: AR Exhibition Lau
 nch
DESCRIPTION:Can the existence of worms help us understand the evolving natu
 re of technology?\n\nEmerging artists ASH//ELLA invite audiences to curate
  their own Augmented Reality (AR) exhibition. Pushing the boundaries of vi
 ewing art to the next level\, viewers become the driver of their own exhib
 ition experience\, displaying and viewing the artworks in the gallery and 
 beyond\, from gardens and public spaces\, to bedrooms across the nation.\n
 \nA Question of Companionship observes the life and existence of worms\, a
 nd their symbiotic relationship with their environment. Through eight imme
 rsive and playful videos\, these humble creatures become a metaphor for th
 inking about technology as a living\, growing extension of the complex hum
 an ecosystem.\n\nHosted at The Royal Standard\, this interactive exhibitio
 n is commissioned by Cognitive Sensations as part of their season ‘The D
 ownloadable Brain’ — exploring near futures and fictions to understand
  the synergy of human biology and new technologies.\n\nPreviewing on the 1
 5th July\, audiences are invited to participate in our launch night\, from
  any location and any city\, curating their own DIY exhibition in a place 
 of their choosing. Audiences will be fully in control of their engagement 
 with the artworks\, positioning and consuming the AR prompts in their sett
 ing of choice. Printable exhibition packs will be available to download in
  advance\, or local audiences can collect one from The Royal Standard on t
 he launch evening\, before dispersing into the City to bring their vision 
 to fruition.\n\nCreating a constellation of immersive AR exhibitions\, thi
 s curatorial approach seeks to maximise participation and interactivity th
 rough personalised approaches that get our audiences moving.\n\nThe mergin
 g of virtual and physical environments situates this artwork in the very m
 edium it critiques. This is a mutual ground\, an interaction between two p
 arts. How can this view of nature\, which feeds\, mutates and exists throu
 gh interspecies connection\, help us consider our own complex relationship
  with the technologies of our time?\n\nIf you would like to sign up to rec
 eive a downloadable pack by email or pick up a pack from The Royal Standar
 d on the 15th July as part of the launch event\, please email cognitivesen
 sations@gmail.com.\n\nAfter the Launch exhibition is bookable to see and e
 ngage with in the gallery\, from 16th June till 1st August. Opening times 
 are Friday\, Saturday\, and Sunday 12 - 6 PM.
