Event @Furtherfield | 6 PM YOUR LOCAL TIME (6PM YLT) - the UK beta test

22 November 2014, 5-7pm
Hashtag: #6pmuk

Curated by Domenico Quaranta and Fabio Paris

6PM YLT is a networked, distributed, one night contemporary art event, 
which takes place simultaneously in different locations, coordinated 
from one central venue, and documented online via a web application.

Furtherfield is hosting the first UK event, chosen for its history of 
critical engagement with networked culture.

At 5.30 pm, curators Domenico Quaranta and Fabio Paris from Link Art 
Center will talk through their ambitions and inspiration for the 
project. Along all the event, participating venues and their audiences 
across the UK will be testing the platform by sharing documentation 
images and videos of their events under the same hashtag, #6pmuk. The 
audience at Furtherfield will be able to enjoy the live feed from all 
the locations involved, and to discuss the project with us.

Artists, technologists, network thinkers and makers are invited to join 
us to learn more about the conceptual framework for 6PM YLT and talk 
through how it can evolve, in anticipation of its European launch in 
July. Food and drinks will be available!

6PMYLT is a format conceived by the Link Art Center and developed in 
collaboration with Abandon Normal Devices (AND) and Gummy Industries. On 
22 July 6 PM YOUR LOCAL TIME launches across Europe.
