> Professor William Latham’s Inaugural — February 3, 2009
>
> Computer art, games and business — A chronological history of
> William Latham’s work.
>
> Tuesday, February 3rd, 2009; 17h30, Ian Gulland Lecture Theater,
> Goldsmiths College.
>
> Lecture summary:
>
> William Latham will chart the course of his work from its roots in
> traditional Fine Art, through his early hand drawn evolutionary  
> drawing
> through to his work as a Research Fellow at IBM UK Scientific Centre  
> in
> Winchester from 1987 to 1993. It is there he developed his pioneering
> Mutator computer art style, and he will expand on its worldwide  
> exposure
> at the SIGGRAPH conference and touring exhibitions around the world.
>
> He will then cover his commercial work; founding a software  
> development
> studio and its projects in the music and computer games industry over
> a 13 year period with Universal Studios, SONY, Virgin and Nokia and
> later due diligence work for banks and investors. He will then talk
> about his work since joining Goldsmiths, University of London, and
> restarting the Mutator 2 Project there which had been dormant for
> 13 years. He will also discuss the new Mutator 2 genetics project with
> the Centre for Bioinformatics at Imperial College and the broadening
> scope of Mutator 2 moving into 3D Design and architecture. Though the
> talk is chronological it will cover a mixture of art, creative,
> technical, research, management and business threads and William will
> aim to share some of the sharper personal insights from the journey
> so far, and the importance of collaborative work.
