Angelo Vermeulen (born 1971) is a Belgian visual artist.〔Resseler 2008, p. 5.〕 His multidisciplinary oeuvre crosses over the boundaries of biology, technology and community. Vermeulen won the Witteveen+Bos Art+Technology Award in 2012.〔N.N. 2012, p. 3.〕 He is crew commander of HI-SEAS, a Mars simulation study on improving the nutritional value of space food, funded by NASA.〔N.N. 24 July 2012 ''in: Knack.be''〕 As a TED Senior Fellow he travels the world to share information about his art and scientific projects. ==Short introduction== Angelo Vermeulen is a space systems researcher, biologist, artist and community organizer. In his work, he ties technological, ecological and social systems together through group engagement and collaboration. Biomodd is one of his most well-known art projects and consists of a worldwide series of interactive art installations in which computers and ecosystems coexist. In 2009 he launched SEAD (Space Ecologies Art and Design), a platform for research on architecture and ethics of space colonization. Seeker is one of the resulting projects involving co-created starship sculptures that evolve over time. From 2011 to 2012 he was a member of the European Space Agency Tropical Team Arts & Science (ETTAS) and in 2013 he was a crew a commander for the NASA-funded HI-SEAS Mars mission simulation in Hawai'i. His space-related work led him to start a new PhD at Delft University of Technology (The Netherlands), developing paradigm-shifting concepts for evolvable starships. He co-authored the book 'Baudelaire in Cyberspace: Dialogues on Art, Science and Digital Culture' with philosopher Antoon Van den Braembussche, and gives talks about his work around the world. IN 2012 he was a Michael Kalil Endowment for Smart Design Fellow at Parsons in New York. Currently, Vermeulen is a TED Senior Fellow and holds positions at (LUCA School of Visual Arts in Ghent ) (Belgium) and Die Angewandte in Vienna (Austria).Vermeulen is also a member of the Arts & Science Topical Team of the European Space Agency (ESA).〔(【引用サイトリンク】Angelo Vermeulen's Biography )〕 Vermeulen grew up in the Belgian city Sint-Niklaas. In 1998 Vermeulen completed his PhD on the deformation of the teeth of non-biting midges at the biology department of the Catholic University of Leuven in Belgium. He also graduated from the Academy of Fine Arts in Leuven, where he studied photography.〔Steveheydens 2006, p. 53.〕 Vermeulen left Belgium to work in London as a photographer together with Nick Waplington.〔 After his return to Belgium in 2001, he attended a two-year post-academic course at the Higher Institute for Fine Arts (HISK) in Belgium.〔Steveheydens 2004, p. 40.〕 This became the starting point of an exploration trying to find out how biology and ecological processes could interact in art and materialize them as art installations.〔Pain 2009, ''in: Science''〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Angelo Vermeulen」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
