I was one of the several jurors for this exhibition which will be on view at Winona State University, June 24-27.

It is showcasing emergent forms of new media art that playfully reveal the way digital technologies influence our perception of reality even as they corrupt the practice of everyday life.

The exhibit is free and open to the public. To register for the Broken Media Conference (which will include many artists’ talks), see http://idmaa.org/conferences/idmaa-2021-broken-media/

I’m excited to be teaching “Walking as Artistic Practice” at UIndy’s MA in Social Practice Art program this summer. It’s a multi-week workshop, and I’ll be teaching it online, building on the lessons learned from last summer’s online iteration.

Interested in the class? Join me later this summer, when I’ll be teaching a variation of the course via MCAD Continuing Education.

 

This Thursday, April 29, 2021, I’ll be giving an artist talk (online) at Syracuse University as a part of their Visiting Artist Lecture Series. I’ll be focusing on my social practice work and zines.

It will be streamed on YouTube – click the Register button here.

This summer I’m teaching a 3-week online workshop, Walking as Artistic Practice.

This workshop is designed as a brief survey of some of the origins, theories, processes, and manifestations of walking as art. Read, watch, and discuss perspectives on walking-based projects. Using this information as a springboard, students will complete their own walking exercises, and execute original walking-based projects. This summer we will be covering the following three topics: embodiment, memory, and place. Open to students ages 18 and above.

This remote class will be conducted via Google Meet. It will include presentations by the instructor, walking projects/exercises, class discussions, and opportunities for students to share their work.

Required hardware: A computer, tablet, or smartphone with internet access, a camera, and microphone for class meetings and to capture and upload work. Required supplies for the first class: Pen or pencil; notebook or sketchbook; digital or cell phone camera.

This summer I’m teaching a 3-week online workshop, Intro to Group Critique (For the Grad School Curious) designed as a brief introduction to group critique through presentations, readings, discussions, and practicing as a group.

We will introduce students to best practices for group critique, and will provide some time to practice critiquing each other’s work. All makers, media, and creative practices are welcome. We will talk about why we critique, cultivating a growth mindset, crafting a group agreement, giving and receiving feedback, and navigating sensitive conversations.

This class is aimed at people who have completed a bachelor’s degree, especially those who might be considering graduate study at some point in the future.

• Three Tuesdays, 6:30-8:30 pm Central Time
