  • Cynthia Hua (ENG)
    Cynthia X. Hua is a new media artist interested in mass user participation, with the idea that computer technologies are works of the collective consciousness. She explores how mass user datasets can be clustered, collaged or computed together, examining how different modes of exchange result in different narrative aesthetics. Her installations and drawings employ tools such as algorithms, artificial intelligence and data mining to show the implicit impacts of digital infrastructure on human expression.
    Hua has exhibited or has work forthcoming at the SF Arts Institute, The Midway, the Yerba Buena Center for the Arts, the Los Angeles Center for Digital Art and other institutions. She has been awarded fellowships from the Gray Area Foundation, the Yerba Buena Center for the Arts, Signal Culture, The Laboratory as well as Harvard University. Her work has been featured in VentureBeat and CCTV, as well as An Artist’s Guide to Computation and Real Life magazine. She has spoken about computer-based art at outlets such as Theorizing the Web, Creative Tech Week
    and NYU ITP. In addition to her artistic projects, Hua has previously worked in data science, studying on how machine learning algorithms shape the creative ecosystem online at companies such as Facebook, Buzzfeed and Hulu. Hua received her B.A. at Yale, writing her thesis on Internet media systems.

  • Evelina Domnitch (ENG)
    Dmitry Gelfand (b.1974, St. Petersburg, Russia) and Evelina Domnitch (b. 1972, Minsk, Belarus) create sensory immersion environments that merge physics, chemistry and computer science with uncanny philosophical practices. Current findings, particularly regarding wave phenomena, are employed by the artists to investigate questions of perception and perpetuity. Such investigations are salient because the scientific picture of the world, which serves as the basis for contemporary thought, still cannot encompass the unrecordable workings of consciousness.
    Having dismissed the use of recording and fixative media, Domnitch and Gelfand's installations exist as ever-transforming phenomena offered for observation. Because these rarely seen phenomena take place directly in front of the observer without being intermediated, they often serve to vastly extend the observer's sensory envelope. The immediacy of this experience allows the observer to transcend the illusory distinction between scientific discovery and perceptual expansion.
