Teleopolis
2nd Wednesdays Art Series at the Exploratorium
Co- Curated by Sponge
February 13, 7pm

In the past, being a part of a city required that you work, play, or other 
wise participate in the culture as a real live human being. Now, there are 
possibilities for us to be citizens of a city remotely. How does the fact 
that we can be avatars in our own cities (or adopted cities) effect the 
cultural fabric of the city itself? Or the fact that we can now exist in 
multiple cities at once? On Wednesday, February 13 at 7pm, the 
Exploratorium's 2nd Wednesdays series will explore our preconceived notions 
of cities and how those conceptions are being reevaluated based on the 
effects of media and technology. How do they alter the cities themselves? 
Can we have conversations with architecture? Can a city be made of icons, 
images and content? Can media pollute the city? Teleopolis includes 
provoking artistic projects that redefine and question our roles as citizens 
and inhabitants of cities impacted by science and technology.

Featured Projects/Artists on Teleopolis include:

::Hubbub by Dr. Sha Xin Wei

::Sauna 02 by Sponge

::Icon City/Live Wired by Erik Adigard

::Fauna 2.0 by Adrian Van Allen

::Autonomous, Popular, and Akward: A Live & DJ Performance by Zygote (Under 
The Radar)
