<p style="text-align:justify;">Emergence is the arbitrary combination of the rules of a system that produces the new and unexpected. In the same way, the artists of DANM are combining paradigms from different disciplines to create a space for the unbridled exploration of the aesthetics of light, culture, history, the mind, and sound. Like a virus or the internet, these emergences will continue to combine and evolve to integrate into the larger structure of society as a whole.</p>

<p style="text-align:justify;">With an opening reception Friday June 8th and during two weekends in June, a diverse group of six graduates of UCSC’s Digital Arts and New Media MFA Program will come together to display their original works of digital and new media art from cutting-edge video and animation, special projection presentations, participatory performance pieces, sound installations, web art and much more. The seventh participant in the exhibit is a Fulbright Scholar, a digital artist from India whose work contrasts our two cultures in dramatic video installations. Special thanks go to all of our <a href="Emergence2007#sponsors">sponsors</a>.</p>

<p style="text-align:justify;">UCSC’s Digital Arts and New Media (DANM) program is at the forefront of a new discipline that merges the creative and academic potential of digital media and emerging artforms in exciting and unfamiliar ways. DANM was established in 2004 to address the increasingly central role of digital technology in the arts and to examine the impact of digital arts on culture. The program offers a two-year MFA program that brings together students and faculty from across the art and academic spectra to collaborate on artistic practice and scholarly research.

<p style="padding-top: 10px;">
Doodler is an online social network based on collaborative drawing and art. It is designed to facilitate and encourage appropriation of not only content, but interface as well. It is the manifestation of Hypersurrealism, providing an infinite space for games like Exquisite Corpse. The Surrealists created imagery by pitting two peoples' creative powers against each other in a twisting together of their subconsciouses like different colored strands in a rope. Once the twisting was completed, the resulting image was one that no one planned but everyone invented in separate, yet connected, contexts. Doodler is a social space that realizes and connects these contexts with a variety of systems and interface structures.
