@ The Renaissance Society

Online

Opening Wednesday, October 16th, at 1PM

For this online program, two scholars from the University of Chicago offer their reflections on Neïl Beloufa’s interactive exhibition at the Ren before joining the artist in conversation. Patrick Jagoda is a specialist in media theory and game studies in the Department of English, whose research has explored network aesthetics and the rise of gamification in American culture, among other subjects. Gary Kafer, from the Department of Cinema and Media Studies, examines the politics of twenty-first century digital culture, with a focus on surveillance systems and how data-based processes reproduce existing power relations.

Live captioning will be available.
