It’s a feature not a bug: An artistic perspective on failure

With Abishek Narula, Assistant Professor of Electronic Art & Intermedia, Department of Art, Art History & Design

April 1st, 2022
12PM-1PM EDT via Zoom

My artist practice is rooted in the exploring, highlighting, complicating and disrupting various issues at the intersection of technology, culture and society. In this talk, I will present some of my creative works and provide critical commentary on digital ecosystem we find ourselves in today. While I employ a range hardware and software technologies in my practice, I am most fascinated when these technologies fail, break down and malfunction. Rather that approaching these moments of failure as something that needs mitigation, I embrace these as opportunities for potentials for aesthetic engagement and critical reflection.
