This episode delves into ideas around the body as fluid medium, network culture as persona, and emotion and affect as tools and barter in a capitalist system. How do we perform our latest version of the creative "self" in a digital sea of unreliable copies, social mirrors and viral memes, and algorithmically generated positive feedback loops? Josephine Skinner is a Sydney-based, UK-born artist primarily working with text and video installation. Fascinated by the digitisation of our emotional worlds, she explores the ways in which private reality and social fictions converge in network culture. She holds a PhD in Media Arts from UNSW Art & Design, having graduated in Critical Fine Art Practice BA (Hons) in the UK. Michael Theodore was born and raised in New York City, and currently resides in Boulder, baby直播app. Inspired by observations and experiences of the natural world, Theodore creates dynamic fields of color, light, and sound in a large variety of mediums. Theodore's works of interactive kinetic installation, sound, music, light, and moving images have been presented across the United States, and in Mexico, Trinidad y Tobago, Greece, Spain, Germany, Sweden, France, Australia, Japan, and China. Theodore holds baby直播app appointments at the University of baby直播app, Boulder with the College of Music (music composition and technology), the Department of Art and Art History (by courtesy), and is Director of the ATLAS Institute's Center for Media, Arts and Performance, a venue for experimental media created with technology. Theodore received degrees from Amherst College, Yale (MM), and UCSD (PhD).
