Description
Born from a partnership between Intel and Vice, The Creators Project is a global network dedicated to the celebration of creativity, culture and technology. At a time in the history of the arts where digital technologies have revolutionized distribution, democratized access, and re-imagined the scope and scale with which an artist can create a vision and reach an audience, The Creators Project is a new arts and culture channel for a new world. On one hand, it’s a modern day media channel continually identifying and celebrating the work of visionary artists wherever they are.
On the other hand, it’s a content creation studio, an ongoing arts foundation of sorts that facilitates the production and dissemination of new work, as well as collaborations between artists from a variety of creative fields. The project includes a collection of artists, designers, musicians, and filmmakers using technology to push the bounds of creative expression.
Execution

The series began in New York with a collection of original artworks, films, panel and live performances. The series then moved to London, Sao Paulo, and Seoul, and culminated in Beijing with a 3-day exposition in September.
