- Comunicação, arte e tecnologia em elearning: a experiência do Doutoramento em Média-Arte DigitalPublication . Veiga, Pedro AlvesO presente artigo detalha a forma como a revisão curricular do Doutoramento em Média-Arte Digital (DMAD) permitiu implementar abordagens metodológicas específicas e orientadas à investigação em prática artística, num projeto de ensino a distância, utilizando-se de múltiplas ferramentas e plataformas digitais, para o efeito. Ao assumir que a prática artística, que utiliza os próprios média digitais, envolve uma rede complexa, generativa, reflexiva e responsiva de interdependências e relações complexas, suportadas e estimuladas através de comunicação, a investigação que a partir dela se desenvolve beneficia da utilização de ferramentas próprias e adequadas, que espelhem as interligações entre criação e investigação. Conclui-se, pois, que o conjunto de preocupações que orientaram a revisão curricular do DMAD, aliado a abordagens metodológicas específicas e otimizadas para o ensino da comunicação, arte e tecnologia, determinam os bons resultados que se têm obtido, especialmente nas últimas duas edições do curso.
- Tele-media-art: feasibility tests of web-based dance education for the blind using kinect and sound synthesis of motionPublication . Dias, José Rodrigues; Penha, Rui; Morgado, Leonel; Veiga, Pedro Alves da; Carvalho, Elizabeth; Marcos, AdéritoTele-media-art is a web-based asynchronous e-learning platform, enabling blind students to have dance and theatre classes remotely, using low-cost motion tracking technology feasible for home use. Teachers and students submit dance recordings augmented with sound synthesis of their motions. Sound synthesis is generated by processing Kinect motion capture data, enabling blind students to compare the audio feedback of their motions with the audio generated by the teacher’s motions. To study the feasibility of this approach, the authors present data on early testing of the prototype, performed with blindfolded users.

- Generative video artPublication . Veiga, Pedro AlvesGenerative art is historically and widely used for the production of abstract images and animations, each frame corresponding to a generation or iteration of the generative system, which runs within the aesthetic boundaries defined by its author. But rather than being limited to image or sound synthesis, generative systems can also manipulate video samples and still images from external sources, and include vectors that can be mapped to the concepts of shot, sequence, rhythm and montage. Furthermore, generative systems need not be limited to the visual plane and can also render audio, either through sound synthesis or by manipulating sound samples. And in this case, since the output is a constant and uninterrupted audio-visual stream, is it not possible to speak of generative video art, as it becomes indistinguishable from its modern-day video art digital counterparts? Within this perspective, this article traces back the historical roots of generative video art, and proposes a theoretical model for generative video art systems, as a creative intersection of two artistic genres, often seen as disjoint.

- When in Memeland, speak in memes: contributions of design towards the betterment of online behavior regarding public healthPublication . Alvelos, Heitor; Pereira, J. F. B.; Chatterjee, Abhishek; Barreto, Susana; Veiga, Pedro Alves; Lima, Cláudia; Santiago, ElianaThis research tackles a current tendency towards scientific mistrust among segments of the population: we posit that channels traditionally employed by scientists and policy-makers may not be sufficient to reach skeptical individuals and communities, as exponentially and pervasively evident in social media circles. We thus propose to explore informal online channels and formats such as memes, short videos, and forums, where the involved demographics tend to obtain information they deem reliable and relatable: in fact, formal channels of scientific communication are often regarded by skeptics as authoritarian and driven by obscure agendas. In this research, we focus on health policy behavior as a locus of conflict in recent years due to the pandemic, with Portugal as a case study. Informed by both online field work and in-person interviews with health policy skeptics, the project has so far produced a collection of visual artifacts for social media circulation. Validated specimens aim to become templates for the adoption of health policies.
- ARTPRENEUR: uma proposta diferenciadora para a introdução ao empreendedorismo no ensino das artesPublication . Carvalho, Isabel Cristina; Veiga, Pedro Alves da; Bidarra, JoséEste trabalho apresenta o processo de conceção e desenvolvimento de um currículo inovador, baseado numa metodologia de lógica de Dinâmica de Sistemas e ferramentas digitais, instigador de competências empreendedoras e resilientes do aluno. Este currículo foi desenvolvido no âmbito do projeto “4ArtPreneur – Innovative Thinking Competences for Creative Art Entrepreneurship” e promove a educação de competências para o empreendedorismo artístico e cultural. São abordadas temáticas relativas aos diferentes tipos de artes e meios de comunicação, ao valor da arte, à propriedade intelectual e direitos de autor, às estratégias de comunicação, marketing e financiamento mais apropriados aos diferentes negócios culturais e artísticos.
- ARDES. Short learning programme on art, design & sustainability with special focus on environment and climate change. Teacher’s guidePublication . Anastasiades, Tasos; Veiga, Pedro Alves da; Nicolau, Paula Bacelar; Bidarra, José; Caeiro, Sandra; Contino, Andrea; Englezou, Demetra; Hadjipapa-Gee, Sofia; Hillenius, Mirjam; Mapar, Mahsa; Mihai-Yiannaki, Simona; Pujadas, AnnaThis guide is addressed to teachers who will implement the Short Learning programme in Art, Design and Sustainability for higher education, developed during the ARDES project (2021-1-ES01-KA220-HED-000032193). It is intended to be a practical document with an overview of the course and guidelines for its implementation, to support the teachers and complement the curriculum and the teaching material.

- Major events that changed the instrumentalists’ performancePublication . Travasso, Rui; Veiga, Pedro Alves da; Gomes, JoséThis article proposes to identify aesthetic currents and key events that affected music instrumentalists over the last 100 years - approximately - as well as to characterize new outcomes in music performance. The aesthetical, technical, and compositional evolution of music influenced and changed the traditional conception of the performance – that of a musician taking to the stage using only his instrument, performing an interpretation of a musical score, in a unidirectional relationship with the audience – to a multidisciplinary concept. This generalised evolution, brought new demands to the instrumentalists, who had to adapt and improve, practically autonomously. The increase of multidisciplinarity, fostered creativity, which in turn gave rise to new techniques, both in interpretation and in musical writing. In order to focus the article, it will be centred on traditional musical instruments players, and excludes instrumental music of oral and/or improvised tradition, as well as vocal interpreters.
