Silent Signal partners six artists working with animation together with six leading biomedical scientists, to create experimental animated artworks exploring new ways of thinking about the human body.

Join Vivid Projects at University of Birmingham for an enlightening afternoon of discussion and demonstration with three of the artist-scientist partnerships. The collaborators will share their development processes and insight into how the production of the artworks addressed the complexity of the science.

Participants:  Ellie Land and Professor Peter Oliver – Sleepless; Samantha Moore and Dr Serge Mostowy –Loop; Eric Schockmel and Dr Megan MacLeod – Immunecraft. 

The Silent Signal project is produced by Animate Projects, supported by a Wellcome Trust Large Arts Award and the Garfield Weston Foundation, and presented in Birmingham by Vivid Projects 18 March – 23 April 2016. This event is presented as part of University of Birmingham's Arts & Science Festival 2016, a week-long celebration of ideas, research and collaboration across campus.
