Shall Make, Shall Be Panel/Q&A 1

presented by Andy Malone, Cherisse Datu, Golan Levin, Lexa Walsh, Vi Trinh

How do you see your work dif­fer­ent­ly in the con­text of the full group pre­sen­ta­tion? Where has it tak­en you?

arts​.codes (Melissa F. Clarke and Margaret Schedel): V.erses
Amendment X: Separation of Powers and Federalism

presented by Margaret Schedel, Melissa F Clarke

When we were devel­op­ing the con­cept for v.erses, we were par­tic­u­lar­ly struck by the final clause of the Tenth Amendment, which reads ​“are reserved to the States respec­tive­ly, or to the peo­ple.” This unam­bigu­ous­ly reserved all non-delegated pow­er to its orig­i­nal source, the people.

Ryan Kuo: Father Figure
Amendment IX: Additional Fundamental Rights of People

presented by Ryan Kuo

The ques­tion for me is, how do you know your rights? Where does your mind go when it gets a hold of those rights? The Ninth is say­ing there’s a writ­ten space here on this piece of paper, and there’s an unwrit­ten space some­where beyond.

Danielle Isadora Butler: Evolving Standards of Decency
Amendment VIII: Excessive Bails, Fines, or Punishment

presented by Danielle Isadora Butler

Justice is so often envi­sioned by the metaphor of scales and bal­ance. I’m mak­ing a gim­baled mar­ble labyrinth. The gim­bal allows for bal­ance, but it is set by the user. 

Broken Ghost (Arnab Chakravarty, Ian McNeely) + Moaw! (MeeNa Ko): Verbal Gymnastics
Amendment VII: Rights in Civil Cases

presented by Arnab Chakravarty, Ian McNeely, MeeNa Ko

We basi­cal­ly kind of dou­bled down on this idea that the game had to have the per­for­mance of the truth at the core of it. So we elim­i­nat­ed the spo­ken poet­ry because in the per­for­mance of the truth the words don’t real­ly mat­ter at all.

Peter Bradley: NOMOLOGOS
Amendment VI: Rights of Defendants in Criminal Trial

presented by Peter Bradley

The con­ceit is that you’re a ball of ink on the nation­al mall and you’re try­ing to get to the Supreme Courthouse in order to sort of argue your case. 

Shawn Pierre: ___ vs ___
Amendment V: Due Process, Self-Incrimination, Eminent Domain

presented by Shawn Pierre

I’m real­ly real­ly inter­est­ed in see­ing what hap­pens when two peo­ple who know each oth­er real­ly well start to play. Because the peo­ple you know well, you get to know their tells when they tell a lie, or at least maybe you think you do.

Vi Trinh: Cyber Soldiers in Cyber Houses
Amendment III: The Housing of Soldiers

presented by Vi Trinh

What struck me first about the Third Amendment is that it’s the only part of the Constitution that deals direct­ly with the rela­tion­ship between the rights of indi­vid­u­als and the mil­i­tary in both peace and war.

Andy Malone: Standoff
Amendment II: The Right to Bear Arms

presented by Andy Malone

I was drawn to the con­cept of fin­ger guns as a metaphor. I also did­n’t want to use actu­al guns in this project. That was sort of a chal­lenge for myself, to not make this about shoot­ing things or make this about overt violence.

Some Random Transcripts

Tim Hwang on New Media 360
presented by Tim Hwang

We identified a group of users on Twitter and we said as a coding challenge, like social battlebots, write a bot that will embed itself in this network and we will score you based on how well these bots are able to achieve some kind of social change, either in the pattern of connections between people or in the things that people talk about.

The Ethics of Open Source
presented by Ashe Dryden

This talk is more about the coercion of labor into open source software. So I want to take a critical look at how we can engage businesses and other stakeholders in technology companies to begin to create a more equal and sustainable environment for all people contributing to open source.

How to Overthrow a Government
presented by Chris Rock

I don't want to live in a world where ISIS is scarier than hackers, especially in 2016. We previously held the title in 2013, '14, and '15. And to be honest I was a little bit disappointed when I saw this result. So I thought I'm in my 40s now, there's a lot of young hackers in the audience, and I'm not going to pass the baton to you guys unless we have that number one spot back in our pile. Read more →

Your Body is a Honeypot
presented by Jillian C York, Mathana

We have to ask who's creating this technology and who benefits from it. Who should have the right to collect and use information about our faces and our bodies? What are the mechanisms of control? We have government control on the one hand, capitalism on the other hand, and this murky grey zone between who's building the technology, who's capturing, and who's benefiting from it. Read more →
