Today, Intel and Vice Magazine launched a collaborative effort titled “The Creators Project.” Pegged as an initiative “dedicated to the celebration of creativity and culture across media, and around the world,” the new project is centered around a website (www.thecreatorsproject.com) and a series of events and exhibitions spanning the globe from New York to Beijing.
The project kicked off today with a streaming press conference led by Vice co-founder Shane Smith and creator Mark Ronson (and notably DJed by Alexandra Richards, daughter of Rolling Stones guitarist Keith Richards).
The site features interviews and documentaries spotlighting artists like Diplo, Muti Randolph, Richie Hawtin, Karl Sadler, Phoenix and numerous other individuals who have helped bridge the ever-narrowing gap between creativity and technology. The already robust site promises a multitude of future updates and content additions, so keep checking back for more information. The first event, scheduled for June 26 in New York, advertises “a groundbreaking combination of interactive art and installations, panels, workshops, screenings, and live performances.” Sounds like a party we wouldn’t want to miss.
