Beehive art&science is an ongoing artistic research experiment and a documentation tool for the European Digital Art and Science Network to collect and contextualize video contents from artists, visitors and partners. In the broadest sense it is a cross-media system for crowdsourced video documentation. The beehive serves as the central metaphor: like in a society of bees, registered artists, partners or participants/visitors swarm out, capture footage of a residency, an exhibition, a talk,… etc. from a multitude of perspective and return it (to the hive) to be ingested into the collective pool.
