Connecting People in the Post-Internet World

By: Randall Packer |

This Saturday evening at 7:30 PM I am moderating a panel discussion: Connecting People in the Post-Internet World: How are technologies and networks changing social behaviour?

The panel will be held locally and remote, and I would like to invite our class to participate via Adobe Connect in order to “activate the third space,” which is the title of my talk. The panel discussion (see below) will take place online in our OSS virtual classroom space. Hope to see you there!

Saturday, 13th September
7.30pm – 8.30pm
(Live + Web-conference, USA and SG)

Please join us for the web conference via Adobe Connect in our Virtual Classroom:

This dialogue session is a program of ‘WHO’S LOOKING: SURF & TURF’, an inquiry into engagements with art in the age of the internet. As our attention ecology manoeuvres between the online and offline, the agency and spectatorship of art in real life (IRL) extends beyond the physical and durational, through their parallel lives on the web (URL). Artists in this exhibition undertake these modes of encounters, producing works that are framed for/by diverse online platforms.

Moderated by:
Randall Packer (Artist, Educator and Founder of Open Source Studio, OSS) via Adobe Connect.

Speakers:
Bernard Leong (Vice-President, Digital Services, Singapore Post Ltd)
Gilles Massot (Artist and Educator, Lasalle School of the Arts)
Huifen Zheng (Corporate Technology Lawyer)

Followed by Creative Mixer Afterparty 8.30pm – late
Complimentary cocktails by Reyka Vodka.
Sweet and savory bites by #tweedlebakes.
