n Ø 1 s e
a series of exhibitions about information and transformation
curated by Adam Lowe and Simon Schaffer
in Cambridge and London

http://www.kettlesyard.co.uk/noise/

n Ø 1 s e is a set of connected exhibitions of art and science...

n Ø 1 s e is an exhibition and a book about how we perceive and how we
communicate our perceptions.

n Ø 1 s e showcases and questions the digital, reclaiming its
antecedents...from Noah's attempts to create a new world order...to
aboriginal sand painting...to Robert Hooke's microscopic dot...to
Braille and Morse...to Charles Babbage's Difference Engine...and the
brain that conceived it.

n Ø 1 s e, hazy images and sudden sparks, random mutations and puzzling
glitches, can all become the sources of innovation and beauty.

n Ø 1 s e celebrates the essential excess from which information is
drawn...Chances are your own sense of order is already someone else's  n
Ø 1 s e.
