CAS Open Evening
Sean Clark et al.

Summary

At the CAS Open Evening, chair Sean Clark and committee members welcome new and returning attendees and outline the Computer Arts Society's recent activities and future plans. Paul Brown, Stephen Bell and Graeme Proctor introduce themselves and their longstanding connections to computer art, from 1960s plotter work and Slade School experiments to EVA London and long-term digital preservation research. Clark reviews the society's programme of monthly talks at the BCS in London, hybrid online access via Zoom and YouTube, and the PAGE magazine archive now freely available online. He describes the CAS50 collection, the Computer Arts Archive Community Interest Company, and upcoming exhibitions including a retrospective of Paul Brown's work. The evening emphasises the society's aim to support practitioners working with computers and digital media across art, research and education, and invites attendees to participate by presenting their own work, joining the committee, or contributing to the growing archive. The session closes with informal discussion and an open invitation to future events.
