Artist's talk: Charlie Tweed
No full textArtist Charlie Tweed created the animation The Signal and the Noise in collaboration with biochemist Dr Darren Logan. This work exposes the parallels of computer coding and genetic coding in humans and animals. Its narrators, an anonymous group of hybrid machines, look at these creatures as inefficient machines and consider ways of editing and improving their code. The film draws upon the latest advances in DNA sequencing technology, as well as new ways of controlling behaviour, such as Optogenetics, to propose a future vision of hybrid computing devices that are used to monitor and repair living things, resulting in better performing humans and animals. Whilst the work appears to be a piece of science fiction, all of the technologies and ideas discussed are based on actual advances and research, and visions of how things might materialise in the future.
Charlie Tweed will go into the work and the research that fed into it, whilst elaborating on the collaboration with Dr Darren Logan. For Silent Signal in LifeSpace, the artist has selected a number of different objects from the University of Dundee Museum’s collection. During his talk, Charlie Tweed will explain the relation between these different objects and The Signal and the Noise that can be seen in our screening space
Charlie Tweed
No full textCharlie Tweed works mainly in film, performance and text to create works that propose new ways of living, new relationships between technology and ecology and new methods of escapism.
The films he creates are made up of found video footage which is reprocessed, re-animated, re-filmed and effected. In recent works he has begun to look at the material origins of media technologies and how every component within a black-boxed device has its origins within the soil.
In the talk at Arnolfini Tweed will present some of his recent films and texts, give a performative lecture titled ‘The Signal and the Rock’ (a proposal for a film) and talk about his new Wellcome Trust funded film ‘Un-encrypting Fear’ (part of Silent Signal recently awarded a Wellcome Trust Large Arts Grant curated by Animate Projects).

Archives, Paratexts and Life Writing in the First World War
No full textThe chapters in this collection have demonstrated a range of ways the phrase 'medical paratext' can be conceptualised, and particularly the interactions between medical practice, medical texts, and their writers and readers. Focusing on the diaries of Canadian nurse-writers in the First World War (particularly the work of nursing sister Clare Gass and VAD Alice Lighthall), this chapter proposes that paratext can demonstrate the contemporary archiving and historiography of the authors' experience, and support their claims to authoritative writing - as military histories, as medical practitioners, and as women operating within male-dominated environments
