Future Screen

20 October - 19 November, 2000

Tue - Sun: 11.00am - 6.00pm
Galleries One and Two

As part of FutureScreen 00, dLux media arts presents a selection of innovative international new media practice which engages with biotech, complex systems and artificial life.

In an era of commercial biotechnology and the proprietary genome, and the engineering of artificial entities, artists offer valuable insights into the shifting nature of living systems. Twisting contemporary technoscience around specific aesthetic and conceptual concerns, hard | soft | wet features work spanning grotesque biotechnology nightmares through to clean software ecologies and delicate robotic systems.

We live in nervous, postevolutionary times. Will OUR drive to engineer living phenomena make us gods, or ultimately displace us?

futureScreen 00 is organised and presented by dLux media arts in collaboration with ACP and Powerhouse Museum, Sydney.
