International Center of Photography - Public Program

April 20, 2015

The new public program at ICP is conceived with a special focus on multimedia storytelling, social media platforms, new narrative tools, and entrepreneurship, while still being aligned with the fundamentals and historic values of ICP which was originally founded as The Center of Concerned Photography.

The three foundation columns of the program will offer the audience to learn, explore and educate themselves in today’s quickly changing environment - from classic masters of photography to new media entrepreneurs and visual storytellers. ICP is offering a curated program and continuous conversation about the challenges and innovative measures in today’s world of photography.

1/ #ICPmeetup - Photography & Entrepreneurship
The landscape and context of photography are changing so drastically that it is hard for photographers to keep up with what’s at the forefront of their trade. In these monthly meet ups we present and discuss with the most exciting established or upcoming start-ups and the founders of companies and platforms that are actually changing the tools and boundaries of photography. The concept of the creative entrepreneur will be presented in many different ways by these founders and the ICP audience has the opportunity to not only learn about these platforms but to also meet the founders over drinks after the presentations.

2/ #ICPtalks - Talks and Panels
The most traditional format of programming featuring talks, panels, photographers presentations, etc. On top of traditional process and master photographers presentations we will also present young and unconventional new storytellers sharing their challenges and work with the audience.

3/ #ICPworkshops - HOW TO?
Monthly short and straightforward workshops about current key learning points and tools of the trade that might seem logic yet often out of reach or hard to grasp or stay in touch over. For professional and novice photographers alike…
HOW TO - instagram? Professionals with 50-500K+ followers share their methods and insights
HOW TO - data visualize? Apps to use and and data sources shared.
HOW TO - code and hack an image? What data do I share without knowing?

New Media Narratives Course at ICP

March 1, 2015

NEW MEDIA NARRATIVES is the first program of its kind at ICP, drawing on the institution’s tradition of progressive, engaged, experimental photography in the pursuit of telling the most important stories. Participants will study experimental media from the days of the Surrealists to today, explore multimedia and transmedia options for engagement, use cellphones to create and distribute some of their work, learn the fundamentals of coding, have access to ICP’s enormous image archive, and engage with audiences across platforms. New Media Narratives welcomes artists, documentarians, and aspiring producers from all kinds of backgrounds. Students will have the opportunity to explore subjects of interest and tackle them from multiple angles in order to tell powerful stories that use the attributes of each medium to their full potential. Designing and mediating the complex digital interactions of the current media landscape to produce a desired narrative experience, is the job of the contemporary visual storyteller.

Students will invite their audiences to participate in the storytelling experience. Students are encouraged to explore connections between traditional and emerging practices and work in a collaborative environment.

Studio 55 is honored to be on the Advisory Board of the New Media Narratives Program at ICP.
