Creative Vision

“The future has already arrived. It’s just not evenly distributed yet.” William Gibson

This quote reflects what it is like to view the world through the work of ANAT, where we assist creative practitioners to develop the new ground where art, science, technology, culture, community and commerce meet in harmony. Looking back over six years of Filter Magazine you can see how creative practitioners working with science and technology not only foretell what will be the significant themes of research, but how we will be engaging with it culturally.

Collaboration is at the heart of innovation – an area very close to Gavin’s heart, in his role at ANAT, an Adelaide-based organisation that represents those people with a creative passion for emerging technologies.

“There are scientists and artists who are currently innovating and developing intellectual property in order to create and do what they do. However, this needs to be recognised in order to enable future innovation,” Gavin says.

“There is an opportunity now – at this time in history – which could be considered the ‘new renaissance’ where science, art, engineering, creativity and innovation come together. More >

    why AncillaryIPs

    “if I had asked people what they wanted, they would have said faster horses”

    - Henry Ford.

    The vision that drives pure research is the true driver of economic, cultural and community prosperity.  Currently our societies and economies have difficulty in reconciling the speculative and the commercial.

    Unique intellectual property is being created every day and we waste it.

    There is a way though that artists, scientists and all those engaged in pure research can focus on that research and still generate commercial outcomes.     AncillaryIPs gives us this capacity.

    AncillaryIPs occur when, in the course of a practitioner pursuing their vision of a final work, they encounter difficulties that require the development of a technology, device, process or code.  These tools become the basis for IP commercialisation. In this way an appropriate commercial value is placed on pure research, allowing for the long term necessity of pure research to have a significant long and short term economic, cultural and social impact.

    AncillaryIPs looks to the tools created in the arts and sciences and applies them to resolve like problems in other aspects of life.   This model relies on pure research and the technical problems that this activity generates.  It is this outstretching drive of pure exploration that means new and unique problems will be encountered and that new and unique solutions will be found to over come them.

    The Wave Diagram shows how creative practitioners continually generate IP in the course of their work.  This IP has been created to resolve a problem, so it is just a case of finding a like problem that the IP can resolve; giving a considerable head start in the R&D process.

    The Complex Wave Diagram shows the relationship between business and the creative practitioner.  The creative practitioner lays golden eggs for their entire creative life. The commercialisation business benefits from the creative practitioner focusing on their work and having the income to continue doing so.  It is a long term relationship where both parties benefit.

    Who’s afraid of the creative industries?

    By Gavin Artz -November 25th 2009

    We have a problem. Artists consistently average annual salaries that place them in the low income bracket (Throsby & Hollister 2003). Despite decades of development through funding and the gradual professionalisation of artist support organisations, like the Australian Network for Art and Technology (ANAT), we have seen little improvement in financial outcomes for artist. This is a huge failing of our current way of conceiving of the arts. We see the arts as creative endeavours isolated from the world, both commercial and social, where strong individual voices within a critical art-world dialogue are more important than cultural or economic outcomes (Brooks 2008).
