The Dream Life of Technology: Desire, Data and the Internet of Things

Emotions Go to Work artist Zoe Beloff will discuss the works in her exhibition and the exploration of the relationship between technology and the mind, how we think through it, how we shape it in our image, and how it, in turn, changes us on both conscious and unconscious levels. Beloff’s work has been featured in international exhibitions and screenings including the Whitney Biennial 1997 and 2002, Site Santa Fe, the M HKA museum in Antwerp, and the Centre Pompidou in Paris. She has been awarded fellowships from The Graham Foundation, the Guggenheim Foundation, The Foundation for Contemporary Arts and the Radcliffe Institute at Harvard. She is a professor at Queens College CUNY. Copies of Zoe Beloff’s book Emotions Go to Work will be available for purchase during the event. Zoe Beloff’s visit to campus and public presentations are funded by a grant from the Kansas Creative Arts Industries Commission (KCAIC).
