The Lesser-Known Experiments in Art and Technology
Bringing together close to twenty curators, artists, and academics, the symposium offered a critical re-examination of Experiments in Art and Technology (E.A.T.).
The symposium explored the foundational manifestations of E.A.T., its lesser-known social innovation projects across the globe, and a number of pivotal yet often overlooked contributions to its famed history.
The Lesser-Known Experiments in Art and Technology was held in conjunction with Sensing the Future, the first comprehensive exhibition in France to showcase the landmark movement. It was organized in collaboration with the Getty Research Institute.
