Culture Lab, Newcastle University announces RENDER 10; an exhibition featuring creative digital media works from the Culture Lab research community.

RENDER 10 presents the forwardlooking scenarios of contemporary audiovisual practitioners from the Digital Media Masters of Research course, as well as members of the Culture Lab research community. Focusing on live media, performance, expanded reality, interactive video and sound installation, the exhibition comprises a range of new projects addressing technology and media with a critical, empirical and often playful approach.

RENDER 10 is a studentled exhibition hosted, supported and organized by Digital Media at Culture Lab, Newcastle University. We strive to create opportunities for public engagement with research and work that deals with issues of contemporary technological and creative practice. RENDER 10 is the second in an annual series of temporary exhibition environments created by staff and students of Culture Lab. Digital technologies are extensions not only of our physicality but also of our imagination, continuously addressing and reshaping our relationships with the outside world. With the works on display at RENDER 10, intimate technologies of our present and future are to be seen at their most creative, inventive, and often critical. This year's exhibition includes works specifically focused on issues of memory, materiality and time, as well as the limits and delimitations of human activity and possibility.

Culture Lab is a unique research infrastructure providing an environment for academics and practitioners working beyond traditional disciplinary boundaries. Culture Lab promotes socially and economically valuable synergies with artists, creative industries, cultural and scientific institutions and the development of innovative research with digital tools.
