“The chance to see worlds colliding in real time…” – Art in America

The Barbican is pleased to present the first London edition of Rhizome’s Seven on Seven Conference, an international event that brings together luminary figures at the forefront of art and technology to create innovative new projects together in a single day.

Over the course of 24 hours, seven teams, each comprised of a leading artist and technologist, are challenged to work together to develop something new—be it an application, concept, artwork, product, or whatever they imagine. Each team will then present their creation at the conference event on Sunday, 27 October at the Guildhall School of Music & Drama’s new building, Milton Court.

This year’s collaborators are:
Susan Phillipsz + Naveen Selvadurai (Foursquare)
Jonas Lund + Michelle You (Songkick)
Mark Leckey + Daniel Williams
Aleksandra Domanovi? + Smári McCarthy (IMMI)
Cécile B. Evans + Alice Bartlett (BERG)
Haroon Mirza + Ryder Ripps (OKFocus)
Graham Harwood + Alberto Nardelli (Tweetminister)
