The E.A.T. Project Wikibase Project Page

Background

Experiments in Art and Technology (E.A.T) was an organization founded by Robert Rauschenberg and Billy Klüver that operated from the mid-sixties to the late-seventies. The organization brought together artists and engineers to collaborate with each other on a variety of projects, with the express goal of transforming both industries. According to the E.A.T. mission statement, "To firmly establish the artists' free access to technology, engineering and the technical processes is not only a cultural, educational or aesthetic problem but amounts in fact to an organic social revolution."

Project Description

The Semantic Lab's E.A.T. project seeks to find new ways of using archival documents as a source for linked data. It is a part of our ongoing collaboration with the Robert Rauschenberg Foundation and explores a pivotal moment in both art and science history.

The E.A.T Project falls under the larger umbrella of Robert Rauschenberg Projects, and has a subproject with it's own name and scope, the "E.A.T Bibliography Project" (record | description).

Focuses for data entry include archival metadata and performance information. Input is ongoing.
