MediaLive: Subterranean
April 25 - May 27, 2019 @ BMoCA
ART + TECHNOLOGY + DIGITAL CULTURE
MediaLive: Subterranean performances, discussions, and installations will be presented at BMoCA!
Boulder Museum of Contemporary Art presented the 7th annual MediaLive, a new media festival bringing together art, technology, and digital culture. MediaLive consisted of a month-long exhibition of media installations as well as digital performances, workshops, and events by contemporary artists and thinkers working internationally in media art. MediaLive also serves as the Arts Track for Boulder Startup Week, an event that brings together technologists from across the US.
MediaLive 2019: Subterranean
Extraction of material resources on a mass scale, secretive government actions, and decisions made by Artificial Intelligence (AI) — we are immersed in a world of activities that take place undercover and underground. Technology inevitably makes its way into every part of this story, made of and disposed back into the earth, used to reveal and conceal.
MediaLive: Subterranean will consider what technology buries and what it unearths, and will experiment with curatorial approaches that consider the role of earthly materials in the festival’s programming and process.
Curated by Maya Livio.
