New Media Curation (NMC) is a move towards simplifying the curation of technological artworks. From action/response works supported by floorpads, to laser or image recognition installations, to generative and augmented works, NMC can assist you in facilitating, administering, and actualizing your exhibition both nationally and internationally.

The School of Design at the University of Technology, Sydney (UTS) and the Design Lab at the University of Sydney (USYD) are collaborating along the themes of augmented reality and urban playgrounds. This collaboration, managed by New Media Curation, is titled Urban Realities & Augmented Play. The project will consist of a joint exhibition, launch, and publication; all of which will serve as a public platform for emerging interaction design students. On launch night, students, industry experts and academics, and the general public converge to create an environment of creativity and experimentation.
Tutoring Contracts
Over Semester 1 - 2012 (March-June 2012), Deborah has been invited to teach in two different Universities: 1] UTS - Data Visualisation & Sonification with Jon Drummond, George Khut, and Viveka Weiley; 2] Design Lab @ USYD - Cyber Studio with Lian Loke and Rob Saunders.
Stay tuned for exhibition updates!
Public Sculpture Commission - UAP & Ausgrid
Urban Art Projects, Brisbane, and Ausgrid have contracted New Media Curation to curate a commission for public sculpture at their Erskine and Sussex Streets City North Substation. Previously the home of Grid Gallery, the space is now undergoing development to enliven and enrich this busy city thoroughfare.
There are 3 phases of this process: 1] an invited longlist of interactive artists as selected by NMC; 2] a shortlist chosen by Ausgrid and UAP for ideation; 3] a final artist is chosen to realise their design.
Watch this space for further development on this exciting project!
