It features a conversation among pioneering artists whose work engages the body and digital media, specifically interrogating the ever-increasing digitized gaze, the transcription of the body through data visualization, and the impact it has on the body’s cultural contexts.

Presented by Ellen Stone Belic Institute for the Study of Women and Gender in the Arts and Media and The Dance Center of Columbia College Chicago.
