observations able to testify to and critically discuss
such environmental change. Join with
scientists, social scientists and community members in a multimedia
debate-workshop chaired by Kooj Chuhan on the testimonial data from this pilot
project compiled using creative participatory video, and explore their
consequences for a future Manchester. The panel includes Nina Glick-Schiller (RICC), Ernesto Hernandez (Scientist),
Jaya Graves (Southern Voices), alongside refugee, activist and
other speakers...
The evening will finish with 'PASSENGER 8', a live music, poetry and multimedia
performance using material from the project by Virtual Migrants artists Aidan

Digital
media and art connecting with race, migration and globalisation.
virtual
migrants
connects and engages artists with digital media, and organises projects that
add new aesthetics and perspectives to themes of race, migration and
globalisation. virtual migrants create, exhibit and distribute artworks
that incorporate digital media techniques that can be installed in galleries,
public spaces or community venues.
virtual
migrants association
was
founded in 1998 to bring together a range of artists, particularly those working
in visual, music, performance and writing, to collaborate on moving image and
new media projects. Its critical purpose is to add new aesthetics,
artistic responses and perspectives to themes of race, migration and
globalisation; to cross boundaries between artists and non-artists, including
with theorists, activists and communities; to draw attention to expressions of
migrants whose existence is held in question; and to artistically explore and
respond to the causes of racialised political issues which continually make headline
news.
