Description
As communication technologies become more and more pervasive, penetrating our private spaces, and moving entire communities into "virtual space," the art world responds by creating ever more embodied, visceral and interactive experiences. In this breakout session, SPU Art History Professor Katie Kresser will interview multimedia artist Daniel Chang about both his work in digital media and his recent performance piece, "Breath of God: Please Remove Your Shoes," staged at Biola University. In this interactive piece, which included elements of sound, light, and movement, Chang hoped to create a physical experience of journeying and transition that would help visitors detox from the harms of Covid-era “digital” isolation.
