folly, alongside fellow Northwest arts organisations FACT, Cornerhouse, Liverpool John Moores' University and ICDC, (the International Centre for Digital Content), has completed an exciting new project working with young people from the Northwest.
The project culminated in the exhibition of two "Body Language" interactive suits that formed part of an artwork commissioned and conceived by the young people themselves.
It's all part of an ambitious research programme called Virtual Lives, whose aim is to better understand the new media technologies being used by the young people of today, and to thereby influence and challenge the long-term programming of media arts organisations.
The project - funded by enquire - has developed in partnership with young people, fostering their independence and their ownership of the project, and supporting them to develop their ideas.
