Participants:

•   Camille Utterback

Camille Utterback will present her widely exhibited interactive installations, and discuss how she uses sensing technologies to deconstruct and refigure traditional media forms. Utterback's work refocuses attention on the embodied self in an increasingly mediated culture. The goal of her work is to question simplistic tropes of 'interaction,' while at the same time pointing at deeper emotional states implied by the physical grammar of interactivity.

Camille will discuss a number of her innovative video tracking pieces, including 'Text Rain' (1999) created with Romy Achituv; 'Liquid Time Series' (2001-2002), currently on display at the Exploratorium in San Francisco; and her newest piece 'Untitled 5' (2004), commissioned by the Marlborough Chelsea Gallery where it is also currently on exhibit. Camille will also present works from her 'Potent Objects' series -- a set of sensor based 'reactive objects' which explore our social anxiety about machines which can feel or emote.
