Ken Goldberg The telescope, telephone, and the Internet were invented to bridge distances. Today we have remote controls for the garage door and the television (the later a remote for the remote. But as our reach is extended we're increasingly vulnerable to error, deception, and forgery. What is the relationship between distance, authenticity, and the snowy thing called knowledge? I'll describe a series of net art projects designed to promote anxiety about these issues. Ken Goldberg is an artist, associate professor of engineering and founder of the Art, Technology, and Culture Colloquium at UC Berkeley. He is editor of The Robot Garden: Telerobotics and Telepistemology in the age of the Internet (MIT Press, 2000) His work has been widely exhibited and has won numerous awards including a Presidential Faculty Fellowship, The White House and the National Science Foundation and the Kobe Prize, Interactive Media Festival. He graduated with a BSE from the University of Pennsylvania and received his MS and PhD in computer science from Carnegie Mellon University. |
