Facial recognition, data mining, racial profiling, biometric tracking, surveillance capitalism and its side effect—what some scholars have called “algorithmic obedience training”—are systems and tools that infringe on our liberties yet often remain invisible or difficult to detect. Artist Nancy Baker Cahill and cyber security expert Kavya Pearlman come together to discuss surveillance technologies and how they impact art, activism and everyday citizens. These friends and collaborators will discuss surveillance as a human rights issue and how vulnerable communities are disproportionately endangered under current conditions. Together, they will explore the subversive potential of sousveillance, and imagine creative resistance, using technology toward empowerment, fortifying privacy rights, and ensuring individual freedoms.

In the twenty-fifth episode of ART + TECHNOLOGY, we meet Nancy Baker Cahill, a multi-disciplinary artist who works tirelessly to broaden access to art, viewing AR as a natural extension of her drawings. Nancy’s 4th Wall app empowers users to place her artworks (in 360 degrees) anywhere in the world, and Coordinates - a recent addition to 4th Wall - enables users to connect with other artists’ works too. Nancy is interested in power dynamics and connecting with underserved communities, and it is AR that she leverages to promote new perspectives and advance dialogue through different cultural communities. Art+Technology is brought to you by Bloomberg Media Studios and Hyundai.
