Luc Courchesne - Current Work

11. November 2021, 10.00 bis 11.00 Uhr Kunstuniversität Linz, Domgasse 1, Raum DO0327, 4020 Linz

Interface Cultures lädt im Rahmen der INTERFACE CULTURE INVITED LECTURE SERIES zum Gastvortrag von Luc Courchesne.

More that ever, these two fundamental questions are central:  Where Am I? Who am I?
My current projects, Ephemeral Ontologies,  Apparitions, TPort, and Wien Chiaroscuro explore these questions by forming online socialisation experiences opening a conversation on the future of society as our exchanges are increasingly mediated by information technologies, the internet of things, robotics, big data and deep machine learning algorithms… This conference will present these projects, the processes they engage and the experience they ambition to offer.
