SUMMARY:Conscious Tether: Art and the Internet in Los Angeles
DESCRIPTION:Opening reception: Saturday\, October 5th\, 5 – 8pm \n\n\n\nGallery hours: Tuesday – Sunday\, 12pm – 6pm \n\n\n\nConscious Tether: Art and the Internet in Los Angeles is a group exhibition of contemporary artists considering what it means to live with and through the internet.  \n\n\n\nAppearing to be both nowhere and everywhere at once\, the internet’s presence is always felt\, always there\, always just outside the bounds of perception. Parallel to the common perception within media theory that infrastructures and apparatuses only make themselves known during instances of breakdown or failure\, Conscious Tether feels out the sites at which matter\, energy\, and labor assert themselves amidst conditions of invisibility\, control\, and waste. These artists prize apart how the networked\, digitized subject might respond to the state of ceaseless onlineness; at the same time\, the exhibition also asks what role the real space of Los Angeles plays within these complex interactions.  \n\n\n\nThe internet’s inaugural message sent from UCLA’s Boelter Hall reached its destination\, but was incomplete. The four-node network crashed after the first two letters—LO—of “LOGIN.” This initial semi-failure or partial transmission seems in retrospect\, given the intervening histories and usages\, emblematic of all that is in excess of the internet and yet could no longer exist without it. The assembled artists in Conscious Tether emphasize the material and immaterial reminders of the internet’s unceasing presence\, exploring its seeming peripheries. American Artist\, ann haeyoung\, and Romi Morrison implicate systems of quantification\, control\, and extraction; LA Cryptoparty\, KCHUNG\, Danielle Dean\, Tiny Tech Zines (Rachel Simanjuntak\, Jules Kris\, Tyler Yin\, Tristan Espinoza)\, and Xin Xin consider practices of labor\, privacy\, and consent; while works by Ahree Lee\, Devin Kenny\, and Alice Yuan Zhang reveal both the realities and possible futures of gendered technology\, encryption\, and technological ruins. Conscious Tether celebrates and acknowledges these peculiar intransigences\, to stay with the trouble that rubs up against the gridded globe of the “World Wide Web.”  \n\n\n\nCo-curated by Chandler McWilliams and Audrey Min\, with public programming organized by Daniel Soto and Casey Reas\, the exhibition will take place at Human Resources Los Angeles from October 5–20\, 2024\, with additional programming venues and dates forthcoming. The opening reception will be held from 5pm to 8pm\, and will feature a performance by Kenny.  \n\n\n\nPublic programming will include performances and workshops throughout the duration of the show. For more information on public programs and artist talks related to the exhibition please visit https://conditional.arts.ucla.edu/ for updates. \n\n\n\nConscious Tether features work by Ahree Lee\, Alice Yuan Zhang\, American Artist\, ann haeyoung\, Danielle Dean\, Devin Kenny\, KCHUNG\, LA Cryptoparty\, Romi Morrison\, Tiny Tech Zines (Rachel Simanjuntak\, Jules Kris\, Tyler Yin\, Tristan Espinoza)\, and Xin Xin.  \n\n\n\nA note on accessibility: Human Resources’ front entrance has one step (approximately seven inches)\, and has a folding wheelchair ramp. The gallery has a one-person gender neutral wheelchair accessible restroom on the first floor. An additional upstairs bathroom is gender neutral and has two stalls adjacent to each other. Audio descriptions and captions will be available for this exhibition. Events may feature flashing lights and loud music. \n\n\n\nConscious Tether is among more than 70 exhibitions and programs presented as part of PST ART. Returning in September 2024 with its latest edition\, PST ART: Art & Science Collide\, this landmark regional event explores the intersections of art and science\, both past and present. PST ART is presented by Getty. For more information about PST ART: Art & Science Collide\, please visit pst.art
