Seven Years of Poetic Computation

Description

An exhibition celebrating and highlighting the work of the School for Poetic Computation (SFPC) over the past seven years. To further reach the communities that have been traditionally marginalized from art and technology, we created an exhibition titled Poetic Computation: 7 years of SFPC. This exhibition showcased a group of artworks from our teachers and alumni. The exhibition also presented material from the school’s archives for the first time, with displays about our pedagogy and philosophy on teaching art and computation. The exhibit specifically focused on computation as an artistic medium — spanning visual art, systems art and poetry — as well as critical perspectives on how computation impacts different communities in dramatically uneven ways.
