What does it mean to be human in a digital world? How does digital identity determine how we relate to each other and the planet? How do we define and demonstrate human identity now and in the future?
Students will conduct hands-on experiments with cutting edge digital culture platforms. They will also experience immersive digital art installations/environments and virtual realities.
How can we become more human and more humane?
What do you get when you bring together art, science and technology? A powerful way of galvanizing people, says Diana Ayton-Shenker.
