Higgins School of Humanities Presents – Feminism, Failure, and “Failure” — A Multigenerational Community Conversation
Date: Wednesday, February 19, 2014
Time: 7pm
Place: Higgins Lounge at Dana Commons
Hugh S. Manon (Visual and Performing Arts) presents a selection of images as a means of theorizing the ontology of glitch. His images derive from the abuse of faulty software and from the semi-arbitrary manipulation of the data that comprises various digital photography formats. In each case, a delicate balance has been struck: the glitchy damage is significant enough to be seen, but not so drastic as to render the file unreadable. The software that “reads” the glitchy images does not “crash,” but instead fails to fully fail. The result is often an explosion of color and scrambling of image content, reminding us of the complex algorithms beneath the seamless perfectionism of all digital media.
