Description: he Western Front’s earliest Internet-based project, presented in collaboration with Mentoring Artists for Women’s Art (MAWA), an artist-run centre in Winnipeg Manitoba. Utopias are often futuristic societies constructed from new ideals and a distillation of ideals from the past. Sometimes we ache for the simplicity and innocence of our past. If only that could be brought with us into our new utopia.

Description: Scrambled Bites is a year long project initiated by the Western Front Artist-Run-Centre. The central theme of the project is to collect data from sensors that are used in multiple installations (by different artists), use the Internet to translate and re-route this information, and then send the data back to the installation sites. In this way, the data of one art work informs the output (or content) of others. The project is inspired in part by a web-article Entropy and Imagination by Christopher Locke and a desire to strip-back complex systems to reveal the basic underpinnings of data flow, exchange, and intersection. It is intended as a forum for research, demonstration, and critical dialogue and includes three artist-in-residence projects and a variety of artist talks, walk-through workshops, presentations, streaming events, and a catalogue.
