Assignment 1: Chosen exhibits for critique

The place, the art, the people

ReActive was an interactive exhibition that featured the creative installations of 8 Australian artists, ranging from digital media to game consoles. It was held at Queensland University of Technology's The Block from the 23rd of February to 25th March 2006. These interactive art pieces were designed to instigate active participation and involvement among its audience but still "allowing the audience choice and partial physical control" (Jones & Thomas, 2006). Jones and Thomas (2006) explained that the aim of the exhibition was to "differentiate the exhibition from popular culture marketing of interactivity" and accentuate the interplay of works with the human body and mind, evoking various and sometimes, specific desired responses among its audience.
