Spanning performance, writing, installation and sound, Tyler Coburn’s artwork measures the horizons of contemporary technology, in part, by uncovering hidden genealogies and imagining alternative futures. For this talk, Coburn will discuss three projects, I’m that angel (2012—), Waste Management (2013-2015) and Where 5 / A Wide Blank (2014-2015), which respectively engage digital labor and the physical Internet; electronic waste; and the logistics of online art spectatorship.
