SymbioticA Friday Seminar> Speaker: Pernille Leth-Espensen;
Title: ‘Artistic Interpretations of Technological Mediation’;
Time & Location: 3:30-5pm @ SymbioticA;
“In recent years artworks interpreting scientific representations have occurred more frequently. As installation art, they are representing data or processes in nature, in the body, or in society.What might be the motivation for this artistic interest in scientific representations? Pernille will argue that by making unusual, poetic, and unfamiliar scientific representations, artworks are investigating how technologies mediate our actions and our perception of the world. Through this investigation they are also reflecting upon the ethical consequences of these mediations.”
