This project explores the coastal areas of Scotland where industrial and natural structures have become interwoven. These areas, where life began the evolutionary journey from ocean to land, are at risk due to rising water levels. This anthropogenic impact on the coast is highlighted by the artist via photogrammetry of the emerging assemblages.

Atmosphere
For details of our last Atmosphere click here.
Atmosphere is our most popular research and event programme. First premiered at the 2010 Edinburgh International Film Festival, it re-imagines the concept of Atmospheric movie theaters from the 1920s and 30s.
Each expanded screening uses a team of guest artists and creatives to work with technology old and new, multi-sensory interactives and live elements too. Expect some smoke and mirrors, before the bells and whistles.

Alt-w Fund
The application deadline has now passed.
Initiated in Dundee by Scottish Screen, the Alt-w Fund is for practitioners based in Scotland to make and develop new artworks, devices and creative applications that challenge the notions of what new media creativity can be.
The fund supports artists to explore experimental and interactive practice, make use of technology as both medium and message, and recognise the changing role that digital culture has in our society.

An invitation to journey - an exploration of landscapes both familiar and fantastical, guided by the unbroken flow of a pure white line against a vast black canvas. Each element - a castle perched on a winding path, a lone tree, a wave curling into the unknown - represents a place of potential, an anchor in this visual narrative of discovery.

Atmosphere OS
New Media Scotland was one of the very first four Creative Informatics challenge holders, securing £20,000 to support an innovative research and development proposal that collaboratively answered our challenge, Atmosphere OS.
Our challenge was to create an open-source toolkit for pop-up multi-sensory cinematic experiences that enables film exhibitors to work creatively with intersecting data sets provided by guests, a chosen venue and the movie itself.
