Glitches & Ghosts, Skillshare w/ Evan Meaney
June 17, 2015 @ 6:00 pm– 8:00 pm EDT
Join visiting artist Evan Meaney in exploring the history, culture and art of the Glitch. Using methods that include databending, media transcoding, and hex editing, you will learn to hack into existing media to investigate the inner workings of how we interact with moving and still images in our digital landscape. Lets break a near-perfect system…and celebrate an imperfect one!
Founding member of GLI.TC/H, South Carolina based artist Evan Meaney is an assistant professor of new media and gaming at the University of South Carolina. His work concerns ghosts, glitches, and the computationally undead. He has been an artist in residence at the Wexner Center for the Arts and a contributor to the Atlantic.
