Exploring Botanic Gardens Herbarium's value, via Environmental Aesthetics. . The project aims to aesthetically redefine engagement with the plant collection at Royal Botanic Gardens Herbarium (RBG) Sydney and to communicate its artistic, cultural and heritage value to the public through a Public Program of creative arts case studies.

The project aims to aesthetically redefine engagement with the plant collection at Royal Botanic Gardens Herbarium (RBG) Sydney and to communicate its artistic, cultural and heritage value to the public through a Public Program of creative arts case studies. It's expected that new insights will arise from an environmental art methodology utilising the digitisation of the Herbarium specimens, so that audiences can interactively experience the plant archive through narratives that activate plants as underpinning ecosystems. Benefits to partners RBG, Bundanon Trust and Open Humanities Press will include the digital expansion of audience engagement with the Herbarium at RBG and Mt Annan and communication of collection’s significance.Read moreRead less

Summary
Sentient Testimony: digital media and memories of Parramatta Girls Home. The project aims to critically assess experimental artistic collaboration as a method for the production of marginalised stories and appropriate forms of national trauma commemoration. Innovative practices of art and digital media are emerging, for example to document life inside Australian child welfare institutions in the context of serious marginalisation and socio-economic disadvantages. The significance of these forms ....Sentient Testimony: digital media and memories of Parramatta Girls Home. The project aims to critically assess experimental artistic collaboration as a method for the production of marginalised stories and appropriate forms of national trauma commemoration. Innovative practices of art and digital media are emerging, for example to document life inside Australian child welfare institutions in the context of serious marginalisation and socio-economic disadvantages. The significance of these forms of testimony has not yet been studied.Read moreRead less
Narrative reformulation of museological data: the coherent representation of information by users in interactive systems. The proposed research seeks to provide Australia with a long-term opportunity to enhance its involvement in the billion-dollar creative economy by building the world’s first immersive 360-degree interactive data browser. Research into such systems benefits society by providing a cutting-edge development in digital technology and information access that enables a creative inno ....Narrative reformulation of museological data: the coherent representation of information by users in interactive systems. The proposed research seeks to provide Australia with a long-term opportunity to enhance its involvement in the billion-dollar creative economy by building the world’s first immersive 360-degree interactive data browser. Research into such systems benefits society by providing a cutting-edge development in digital technology and information access that enables a creative innovation culture. Through applied research into the narrative forms that underpin museological archives, this study will ensure that Australia remains at the forefront of the growing world-wide research into interactive technology thereby assisting the global digital media industry to tackle emergent challenges.

Reformulating war memory as a dialogical interactive narrative. The project uses cutting-edge visualisation technology to explore ways to communicate and understand the collective experiences and memories of war. The project will enable the active participation of defence personnel and their families in the creation of a world first interactive archive of war stories.
Transforming rehearsal design using an interactive spatial aesthetic. The Project aims to investigate an interactive spatial aesthetic that facilitates modelling of operatic rehearsal design. It will do this through application of an experimental artistic system that reshapes concepts of spatial design through collaborative interaction between creative teams and digital systems. It demonstrates how creatives can immersively design a rehearsal in real time at up to 1:1 scale, assisted by an evolv ....Transforming rehearsal design using an interactive spatial aesthetic. The Project aims to investigate an interactive spatial aesthetic that facilitates modelling of operatic rehearsal design. It will do this through application of an experimental artistic system that reshapes concepts of spatial design through collaborative interaction between creative teams and digital systems. It demonstrates how creatives can immersively design a rehearsal in real time at up to 1:1 scale, assisted by an evolving database. It transforms our understanding of rehearsal design and the way it can be aesthetically explored, with outcomes that optimise and streamline design processes in the performing arts industry.Read moreRead less
Reformulating set design aesthetics via a dialogical model of interactivity. This project aims to investigate the emergence of novel forms of interactive aesthetics in contemporary performance design. It will do this through experimental application of an artistic system that reshapes concepts of set design by integrating developments for new types of collaborative interaction. This will allow Australia to capitalise on new digital opportunities that will advance the development of Australian pe ....Reformulating set design aesthetics via a dialogical model of interactivity.

The reformulation of landscape as a user-generated interactive aesthetic. This project seeks to provide Australia with an opportunity to advance its understanding of landscape and climate change by building the world's first networked landscape visualisation system.
Atmoscape: the aesthetic reformulation of the atmosphere using intelligent imaging systems. The proposed research provides Australia with an opportunity to advance its understanding of atmosphere and climate by building the world's first remote sensing visualisation system networked across three continents.
The reformulation of war art as a dialogical interactive narrative. This research uses visualisation technology to explore new ways to communicate and understand the collective experience and personal memories of war. It aims to strengthen Australia's leadership in media arts, facilitating the active participation of defence personnel in the creation of a world-first interactive archive of war stories.
Redefining museum experience as an immersive networked narrative. The Project aims to investigate the contemporary emergence of novel forms of immersive and networked narrative in museum settings. It expects to reformulate our understanding and experience of a multi-located collection and the ways in which it can be aesthetically explored. To do so, it will experimentally apply an artistic system that transforms the display, engagement and organisation of the Museum of Applied Arts and Sciences' ....Redefining museum experience as an immersive networked narrative. The Project aims to investigate the contemporary emergence of novel forms of immersive and networked narrative in museum settings. It expects to reformulate our understanding and experience of a multi-located collection and the ways in which it can be aesthetically explored. To do so, it will experimentally apply an artistic system that transforms the display, engagement and organisation of the Museum of Applied Arts and Sciences' collection across its venues. Anticipated is a demonstration of how users can explore this distributed collection in concert with a database system, with benefits that impact the aesthetic scope and scale of museum experiences.Read moreRead less
