Artist Talk: Ars Electronica 2021

Ania Catherine and Dejha Ti speak at Ars Electronica 2021 in Linz, Austria; this year’s festival theme is A Digital New Deal.

Title: Art and (invisible) technology: A closer look at Soft Evidence and On View

Date: 10 September 2021, 2pm CET

Description: In both Soft Evidence (2021) and On View (2019), Ania Catherine and Dejha Ti incorporate advanced technologies into immersive works that appear to be non-digital—even though they are the opposite. While critically engaging with dilemmas around large scale AI, ubiquitous computing, extractive technologies, and synthetic media, their work highlights the nuanced ways in which technology affects our lives in often invisible ways. In this talk, the duo dive into their approach to using technology both conceptually and technically in their practice.

Soft Evidence supported by Media Futures, has received funding from the European Union’s framework Horizon 2020 for research and innovation programme under grant agreement No 951962.
On View was commissioned by SCAD Museum of Art
