CONTACT:Sheila Betts
DESCRIPTION:The plethora of cameras in our digital media devices today is 
 a science fiction vision writ large\, such as that of Bertrand Tavernier
 ’s film\, Death Watch (1980)\, whose protagonist Roddy (played by Harvey
  Keitel) records everything he sees via camera lenses installed in his eye
 s. Armed with our mobile cameras\, events from the Arab revolutions to the
  University of California protests are now not only seen and witnessed thr
 ough the camera's eye\, but also recorded\, edited\, archived\, uploaded a
 nd circulated. Our understanding of the world via the mobile camera is thu
 s not merely the mediation of realities\, but an extended ecology connecti
 ng image\, technology\, media\, reality and event which in turn inflects c
 oncepts of seeing\, self\, place\, visuality and interactivity. This talk 
 will explore why and how that is done. \n
