Matthew Kneebone kick-starts proceedings with a lecture on how visible technologies have become invisible throughout history. Donna Verheijden then takes things digital with her video essay “Eye Trick the I”, exploring how identities form today through visual culture and social media. The artist follows up with a unique performance created interactively with the Plokta audience.
