What NEoN Stands For
NEoN Digital Arts (SCIO) advocates for digital art and technology while at the same time addressing the negatives aspects that can often arise from their use. These include ‘Digital Damage’ to personal safety, security, mental health and the environment which alongside poverty and lack of access can contribute to social exclusion from our digitally reliant society.
We provide access to expertise and equipment in a safe, inclusive environment, using free, open-source or low cost software while simultaneously explaining the ethical issues surrounding their construction, use and disposal. We support individuals and community groups in finding practical solutions across a broad range of concerns, from overcoming online hostility to women to the responsible recycling of obsolete tech.
