\section*{Introduction}

The Collision Collective and Art Interactive present {\it Collision
Six, Senses}, an experimental exploration of art and technology.
Collision Six, the sixth event in the Collision series, will showcase
art from artists from MIT and beyond who use new technologies in their
work.  Eighteen pieces of art are presented by Stefan Agamanolis,
Jessica Banks, Joelle Bitton, Nell Breyer, Andrew Brooks, Ben Dalton,
Jeana Frost, jackbackrack, Brian Knep, Nick Knouf, Jeff Lieberman, Dan
Maynes-Aminzade, Andrew Neumann, Amanda Parkes, Nancy Paterson, James
Patten, Hayes Raffle, Ramesh Raskar, Dan Roe, Fran Trainor, and
William Tremblay.  

This show offers glimpses at the potential of technology based art.
First, this artwork introduces novel ways to perceive our environment.
Next it provides us with new perspectives on a future technology based
society.  Finally, technology based art suggests unique ways of acting
on our environment.

In general, Collisions are a showcase of envelope-pushing artwork in
an interactive workshop/laboratory format. The artwork often involves
never before tried technologies, concepts and installation
approaches. It is an opportunity for Collision colluders to experiment
and show new ideas and techniques and to discuss their work with and
gather feedback from the public.  Artists will be available during the
opening and weekends to speak with the public.
