EDITORIAL ANTENNAE ISSUE 21 Animal Influence was the title of a conference part of the Interactive Future series, organised by Carol Gigliotti, which took place in November 2011 (Vancouver). The conference gathered nationally and internationally recognised artists as well as scholars whose work is influenced and informed by animals, their cognitive abilities, creativity and consciousness. As the introduction of the program stated: “Our particular interest is in how investigations in animal-human relations are affecting the ways in which new media artists are considering broader understandings of other species and creating varying methodologies for experimental art and new media appropriate for these unique circumstances”. This issue of Antennae, (and the next one, which will be available in September), gathers the great majority of papers delivered at the conference and a selection of artworks which were exhibited at the concomitant art exhibition. Together, the two issues of Antennae constituting Animal Influence I & II have been structured in such way to resemble the tri-parted structure of the original conference in which papers were gathered: ‘Agency’, ‘Perception’ and ‘Consciousness/Compassion’. This last one, for the sake of brevity, has here been surmised by the term ‘Mindfulness’. In between scholarly papers, we have placed what’s called ‘Artist’s Pages’: a section highlighted by coloured paper in which each individual artist is represented by one or more works (along with an artist’s statement) which were on show at the exhibition. What will become evident to the reader is the great breath and wealth of perspectives, approaches and subjects the conference enabled to surface; a wealth which would have been dispersed if it were not for this publishing project. It is the first time an issue of Antennae is entirely dedicated to a conference and it is also with great pleasure that we have collaborated with Carol Gigliotti, whom we thank for her kind collaboration, on this occasion. We shall keep this editorial as short as possible and allow Carol to discuss Animal Influence in the introduction which follows. Giovanni Aloi Editor in Chief of Antennae Project 3
