Presentations on the theory & practice of surveillance and
contemporary protest art, by graduate students in the ITP program at
NYU’s Tisch School of the Arts.

The presenters’ talks will be grouped into four panels, to be
moderated by their Professor, Marisa Olson (Curator at Large,
Rhizome), on topics ranging from voyeurism and play to intervention
and networks of control. These panels will consist of both artist
talks and critical essays, and audience members will be invited to
give feedback on a few works in progress.
