Virtual
Join American Artist and Salome Asega, artists whose work explores themes of art, technology, and activism in conversation with Marisa Olson, a fellow practitioner and Executive Director of the Digital Studies Institute. They will discuss the role of the arts in framing and producing social justice commentary and the ways in which they use technology to both critique and intervene in the problematics often posed by technology. How can the arts model critiques of technological utopianism? How can the arts lead the way to a better future, which will inevitably be shaped by the technologies we use?
