JODI
Radiator&NTU Presents: Broadway Live Lecture
Fri 16 January 11am
JODI explores the relations between the world we build through the Internet and the one based on our past mental and physical maps. Services such as GoogleMaps™ have changed radically our worldview by making the Globe accessible as a commercial multi-user surface. Here JODI plays with the processes of coding/decoding, of deciphering cryptic data in a chaotic surface in order to uncover hidden messages in geometric shapes.www.jodi.org
