Abstract

This presentation demonstrates the interdisciplinary work of the Captivate Heritage Laboratory (University of Greenwich). Operating within a critical framework the work embraces digital aesthetics/ontology and the spatiotemporal weave of ‘permanence’ and transitoriness as it engages with sites and objects of historical significance. Human beings, their ideas, their art, their architecture, their technology, and their social forms of organisation are all systems wherein noise and chaos resolve to some kind of order. These chaotic systems are dynamic, and their spatiotemporal dimensions relative. A critical understanding of this dynamism affords new understandings of our relationship to the material world and to history.
