all velvet sentences as manifesto, Like a lesson against smooth language or an invitation to be feral hypertext

January 23 – March 23, 2024

We are Emerson College’s platform for showcasing contemporary visual art.

Our focus is on presenting living artists, their ideas, experiments, and creative practices in the areas of media art, performance art, and emergent technologies, while critically examining these works in their social context. Our in-depth engagement with the temporary exhibitions and related public programming is based on the principle that artistic practice is an intellectual activity and works of art are a form of knowledge production.

WRITING WiTH WORD GAMEs

Kameelah J. Rasheed

Get out of your way and learn to write with games, constraints, and algorithms. The workshop’s purpose is not to create a perfect piece of writing; rather, it is an invitation to get a bit feral and messy as we pull language into our orbit.

LECTURE-PERFORMANCE
