Art && Code Homemade: Vernelle A. A. Noel

presented by Vernelle A. A. Noel

I look into mak­ing. And that’s tra­di­tion­al mak­ing prac­tices, dig­i­tal prac­tices, and their inter­sec­tions with soci­ety. So under­stand­ing what that rela­tion­ship is, can be, or might be, and how they influ­ence each oth­er. So how mak­ing prac­tices in soci­ety can influ­ence the tech­nolo­gies that we devel­op, right. So I make tools, process­es, tech­nolo­gies, etc., and real­ly ques­tion cul­ture, soci­ety, and design through them.

For me, hav­ing the free­dom to explore and tin­ker and wan­der to advance the plot has felt real­ly key. And I want to acknowl­edge that hav­ing the capac­i­ty to allow such uncer­tain­ty and anar­chism into one’s life is not a priv­i­lege that every­one has.

I guess I’m real­ly an ener­gy artist. So I’m just super inter­est­ed in the flow of ener­gy through all things. I find that when you look at it in terms of ener­gy, and you think about per­fume and the expe­ri­ence of per­fume and how you con­struct it as ener­gy, as fre­quen­cy. Same as the fre­quen­cy of the col­or fields in a paint­ing. Same as the ener­gy and the fre­quen­cies that hap­pen in a sound cir­cuit. Ultimately it’s all about the ener­gy and the vibra­tion, and I think that’s real­ly the crux of where I focus my creativity.

Home…made, home…made. Like what does that even mean any­more? Literally every­thing is home­made now that we’ve been impris­oned there. Even my sis­ter. She’s a lawyer. She’s basi­cal­ly prac­tic­ing law in a home­made court­room while rid­ing an under-desk ellip­ti­cal. If only an artist with a lot of fore­sight did their 2017 MFA the­sis show about this exact top­ic. Oh yeah. I did that.

I think a lot of the times in my field, we see peo­ple with tech­ni­cal skills, tra­di­tion­al tech­ni­cal skills like com­put­er sci­ence or elec­tri­cal engi­neer­ing, being com­fort­able sort of tak­ing on the role of craftsper­son. But at the same time we’re not very…generous with giv­ing the term ​“engi­neer” or ​“tech­ni­cal” to peo­ple who are real­ly from the world of craft.

Art && Code Homemade: Rael + San Fratello

presented by Virginia San Fratello

It’s called Mud Frontiers for two rea­sons. One, because we are quite lit­er­al­ly build­ing with mud. And two because we’re work­ing at the fron­tier of tech­nol­o­gy, using robot­ics and 3D print­ing. But also because we’re work­ing at the his­tor­i­cal fron­tier between the United States and Mexico.

While prepar­ing my pre­sen­ta­tion I had a chance to talk with Golan, and he said that Art && Code isn’t real­ly a venue for kin­da port­fo­lio pre­sen­ta­tions of projects. Much rather it’s an oppor­tu­ni­ty reflect on one’s work from a dif­fer­ent angle, pos­si­bly a more per­son­al one. And so I thought if I may spend the next twen­ty min­utes talk­ing to you a bit about my rela­tion­ship issues. Or rather a bit of a cri­sis that hap­pened about five years ago. 

Art && Code Homemade: Max Bittker

I think that I’ve tried to make things that expose the inter­nals of the way that they work. And so com­put­ers are by default kind of opaque, and I think that any time a sys­tem can put a glass lid on what’s hap­pen­ing inside, or make it audi­ble in some way, is one step that you can take to share and make that less of a single-person experience.

Bringing a kind of fab­u­la­tion or fab­u­la­to­ry prac­tice to design, I want us to try to under­stand design a bit dif­fer­ent­ly, as a kind of multi-bounded process that starts as very small ges­tures and begins with doing the impossible.

I think tech­nol­o­gy, and code as a sub­set of tech­nol­o­gy is best thought of as a phys­i­cal man­i­fes­ta­tion of our social and cul­tur­al val­ues. So in our soci­ety, we cre­ate tech­nol­o­gy as a means to con­trol nature and/or human rela­tion­ships, and as a way to rein­force dom­i­nant pow­er structures.

Film is Evil, Radio is Good
presented by Richard Nash

By and large images tend to always be in the lead, always running ahead because of ease of consumption, because it requires less brain processing on our parts. But text is never obliterated. Read more →

Institutions in the Age of Algorithms, and Why We Still Need Them
presented by Lee Bryant

If you look at human history all the way through, we organize ourselves in different ways. Tribes, religions, guilds, states, more recently companies and networks. And what these institutions do is they sort of codify values and beliefs, and they they transport them across the generations. So we see this phenomenon that when you codify values in institutions, you give those values longevity. Read more →

danah boyd: Algorithmic Accountability and Transparency
presented by danah boyd

In the next ten years we will see data-driven technologies reconfigure systems in many different sectors, from autonomous vehicles to personalized learning, predictive policing, to precision medicine. While the advances that we will see will create phenomenal new opportunities, they will also create new challenges—and new worries—and it behooves us to start grappling with these issues now so that we can build healthy sociotechnical systems.

Latinx Environmentalisms: Place, Justice, and the Decolonial
presented by Priscilla Solis Ybarra

This is a panel that proposes to talk about liberatory, joyful aesthetics. And if you've taken the time to read the Green New Deal, it doesn't really take a lot of care to appeal to us in an aesthetic way, right. It's a bureaucratic document. But we're challenged here to talk about cultural politics and the Green New Deal, or what Damian said this morning, how does that politics feel and entice? Read more →

ASU KEDtalks: Carbon is a Terrible Thing to Waste
presented by Klaus Lackner

For this theoretical physicist here it seemed actually very simple. It's a conservation law. If you take carbon out of the ground and you put it into the system it will stay there unless you take it back out. From a societal perspective, this is much much more complicated because as we fix it there will be winners and losers. Read more →
