Hot Enough? Art, Activism and Wireless Technology During the Republican National Convention

The Republican National Convention gave rise to a wave of artistic projects employing wireless technology to make specific political statements, allowing us to assess its efficiency as a tool for political activism.

On occasion of Spectropolis, a panel will analyze how artists employ wireless technology to reach unprecedented masses, to recast the concept of "collaboration," to redefine and politicize the urban environment, and to achieve unparalleled levels of immediacy.

Participants include: Yury Gitman (The Magic Bike); Tad Hirsch (txtmob); Natalie Jeremijenko, (Clear Skies; Bitradio; Antiterror Line); Joshua Kinberg (Bikes Against Bush); and neuroTransmitter (Re-Inventing Radio). Moderated by Jonah Peretti, Director of Research and Design, Eyebeam.
