Hinweis der Redaktion
- Introduce yourself say who you are and mention that you were on judging panel. The BL Labs Artistic award recognises outstanding and innovative work that has been carried out using the British Library’s digital collections and data for an artistic or creative endeavour which inspires, stimulates, amazes and provokes. Mention we had a very diverse range of entries this year and say you would like to highlight some of these.
- Paul Rand Pierce is a Freelance Graphic Artist from the United States of America. He has created a graphic novel posted in excerpts on Facebook and illustrated by images originally derived and reworked from the BL Flickr Commons collection. The result is a work that combines the qualities of comic books, art books and short story compilations.
- Animation director Kristina Hofmann and Curator Claudia Rosa Lukas from Austria worked together to create an 80 second and 5 smaller animations to accompany the Austrian contribution to the International Fashion Showcase London, for two weeks in February 2016 (parallel to London Fashion Week). This was exhibited at Somerset House and themed ‘Fashion Utopias’. They used over 500 images from the British Library’s Flickr Commons collection. You can see their entry on the display wall in the foyer.
- Jiayi Chong from the United States of America was a former Technical Director at the Pixar Animation Studio and now founder of Kestrel Moon Studio. He has developed an animation software tool to animate 2D images. He took some British Library Flickr Commons Images and animated them to create a fictional scene using painted people and animals to bring them to life using the tool in 2015. The characters exhibit realistic movement, with cloth and hair that sways naturally with motion/wind. You can see his entry on the display wall in the foyer.
- Ling Low, writer and director of Sweet and Low films based in Malaysia created a promotional video entitled ‘Hey There, Young Sailor’ for the Malaysian folk band ‘The Impatient Sisters. The visual art is by Lyn Ong and the video mixes live action, archive images from the British Library’s Flickr Collection, digital animation and hand drawn illustrations. The film tells a tale of two lovers lost at sea. You can see her entry on the display wall in the foyer.
- Senad Čauš is a game developer and graphic artist from Croatia. He developed ‘Exhibit’ a picture puzzle game in 2016, with rotating rings based on the British Library Flickr Commons images.
- Joseph Smith entered this award as an MA student in Computational Arts at Goldsmiths, London as part of his final work in the summer of 2016. It was an audiovisual installation utilizing technologies from the past and present to imagine and propose a technology based religion of the future. The sounds he used were taken from the British Library Environmental Sounds collection.
- Laurence Mercer is a web developer from Lhmdesign at the Open University in UK. Laurence developed a series of revisualisations of the British Library’s data in 2016. The middle image represents the British National Bibliography (BNB) in the form of an early home computer program. The second, top left 'Glitch images', which presents pixel bending designs using the British Library's digital image collections. And finally 'Data tapestry', bottom right, which presents programmatically recreated British Library images and the concept of woven data.
- Nick Cave is the owner of AniTatoes Animations based in Birmingham in England. He created 25 6 second 3D animated videos released on instagram which contain images from the BL Flickr Commons collection. You can see Nick’s work in the foyer.
- Richard Wright is an Artist from England who worked in residence at the British Library on an Arts and Humanities Research Council’s Internet of Cultural Things project this year. His final work entitled The Elastic System is artwork in the form of a database portrait of the British Library librarian Thomas Watts who invented his innovative “elastic system” of storage in order to deal with the enormous growth of the British Library's holdings that was threatening to overwhelm them. You can see Richard’s work in the foyer.
