Art & Tech Series: Is Technology a Time Saver, or a Time Taker?

Kim and Patricia sit down to talk about how artists and arts professionals use technology, and to what ends. We trace a line from the Sony Portapak to avant-garde film movements, feminist film theory to artists taking ownership of their archives, exhibition modeling, AI, cybernetics, and more. What effect does our tech use have on art itself, and society at large?   This episode is the first in an ongoing series centered on the theme of Art & Technology.   As a note to our listeners, this episode discusses the January 2025 LA Fires and their effects on artists and art workers.    References: Riddles of the Sphinx (Laura Mulvey) Cyberfeminism Index (Mindy Seu) In Mourning and In Rage (Suzanne Lacy and Leslie Labowitz) The Cybernetic Hypothesis (Tiqqun)
