The NYU Center for Advanced Technology (CAT) has partnered with Creative Time (CT) and Rensselaer's iEAR Studios to host a series of speakers on 'Media Art or Whatever' (MeAOW). The CAT's MeAOW is an Artist/Technologists forum that hosts speakers whose work rethinks technological innovation and demonstrates different possibilities for the use and promulgation of new technologies. The goal of this occasional series is to provide a venue where artists and technologists can engage and contest the visions of thefuture that are implicitly and explicitly embedded in the new technologies rapidly being adapted as the dominant vehicles of cultural experience.
