I'm collaborating with my old friend Taeyoon Choi for a trans-continental lecture next week on Friday, April 16 hosted by the Centre for Heritage Arts & Textile (CHAT) in Hong Kong. It's in the morning New York time (9am) and evening Hong Kong time (9pm). We'll be joined by the scholar Amy K.S. Chan. Please tune in!
Interweaving Poetic Code 織碼如詩
Friday, 16 April, 9:00pm (Hong Kong, UTC+8), 9:00am (New York, UTC-4), 10:00pm (Seoul, UTC+9)
New York- and Seoul-based artist and educator Taeyoon Choi and New York-based professor of media studies Alexander R. Galloway join to consider the common underpinnings of textile and code, including those of duality and opposition, from humans and machines to production and philosophy. How may these considerations supersede or sustain such binarisms? What alternative relations are possible? The conversation will be moderated by Amy K.S. Chan, Hong Kong-based professor and scholar researching on the intersections of technoscience and philosophy, as well as gender and literary studies.
This Keynote is part of Poetic Emergences: Organisation through Textile and Code, a 4-day online Discussion Forum held on 16 – 19 April, 2021 that gathers the voices of local and international creative practitioners including weavers, programmers, philosophers and community workers to investigate the transformative processes of textile and code.
