Sympathetic Sims: Autumn 2023 Exhibition

A robot sits at a desk, making artwork on the computer. The title says Sympathetic Sims.

Join us December 6, 5-7pm in Hopkins Hall for the Autumn 2023 Art & Tech Student exhibition, Sympathetic Sims.

Hopkins Hall First Floor Hallway Gallery & Rooms 146, 156, 167

Who’s been making artwork this semester and how?  As new technology based artwork grows and grapples with artificial intelligence we ask, who makes the work?  Are the computer’s simulations sympathetic to our artistic intentions?  What can we make that they cannot?  What can they make that we cannot?  Come see what our students have been up to in this AU 2023 exhibition of Art & Technology artwork at the Department of Art Open House.

The exhibition features a range of work coming out of our Digital Imaging, 3D modeling, Internet Art, Robotics, and Animation courses.  Learn about natural ink with the Living Art Eco Lab, experience Virtual Reality projects, and hang out with the Lichen Likers.

Un•mute•tation exhibition

| Amy Youngs

An exhibition of student work throughout Hopkins Hall & Online

An To unmute is to press a button and speak up; to change our status, come alive, and raise our voice. An action we’ve gotten to know these past few years.

Now our so-called return to normal is actually an evolution into a new form.

This exhibition showcases student work from art and technology classes this spring semester. Student work shows creative decisions plotted in a tumultuous world, sounding an unstoppable voice, ever evolving. We are unmuted, changed forever. We share the un•mute•tation.

An exhibition of student work throughout Hopkins Hall & Online

Dec 8, 5 – 7pm; First floor work on view through Dec 10

Set in a hybrid of online and physical space, A Textured Transmission is an exhibition of student artwork showcasing the range and depth of work coming from art & technology area courses in the department of art. After a semester of exploration with tools, technology, and time, students are ready to broadcast their ideas and accomplishments. This exhibition signals an exchange of ideas and carries an energy that emerges as we make our way back to physical spaces.  It also melds with the new techniques and online spaces we have built over the past year. This is a textured transmission.

Radicant Bodies

| Amy Youngs

In Botany, to be radicant is to have roots that grow above the ground. This form of rooting allows plant species to mobilize, adapt, and grow on any surface. During an unprecedented moment of remoteness, our proximity to the tactile, irregular, and bumpy surfaces of everyday life in the classroom, in our labs, and our studios are suddenly smoothened, stretched thin, and illuminated through our screens.
RADICANT BODIES highlights the work of students who have found new ways to enact senses of creativity, community, and care during an incredible shift in our relationship towards technology and social proxemics. Our bodies negotiate distance and intimacy; the line between visibility and surveillance; what is organic and inorganic, to make sense of the complex terrain and interfaces we find ourselves traversing today. Student works featured in this Spring’s Art & Technology exhibition are selected from their courses in Digital Imaging, Internet Art, 3D Modeling, Moving Image Art, New Media Robotics, Computer Animation, Graphic Novel, Art Games, Sound & Image, and Studio Practice.
