Takeaway Festival
|
The Takeaway Festival provides an opportunity for artists and designers from both the UK and abroad to exhibit their work in a professional sympathetic environment. The exhibitions offer public support and response for artists whose practice involves the use of technologies either on the edge of their own knowledge or outside accepted methodologies currently available to artists/designers. The Festival puts out a call for participation well in advance and has also been able to commission work using specific technologies or approaches. |

The Takeaway Festival has attracted a wide variety of speakers from the UK and abroad. These valuable contributions have added breadth and dimension to each year's events adding a wealth of experience to the mix of thinking across key aspects of contemporary culture. The Festival has often been at the forefront of new developments and has facilitated an early engagement with important issues raised by new technology. |
|
| The Takeaway Festival is a live event and emphasizes the crucial role of the audience and its participation. The Do-It-Yourself philosophy of Takeaway encourages visitors to get involved with the lively programme of contributors on stage. Each audience member has their own unique take on what's happening and this is a valuable element in the whole experience. |

The creative use of language is an example of an ancient technology coming to life once again as new forms, new idioms and syntax are discovered. Language strikes us again with all its elemental force in live poetry sessions. |

The Takeaway Festival has been at the leading edge of the technological revolution. It has put on free workshops that have helped to engage artists and designers with new kinds of practice. RFID, iPhone, Arduino and much much more. |
