In my recent work, I have sought to correlate what I term “21st century media” with a fundamental transformation of the relation between humans and their environments. By “21st century media,” I mean media that operates predominately outside of the realm of human sense perception and evades conscious grasp; in contrast to the great technical media of the 19th and 20th century – notably, phonography and cinematography – which operated to inscribe, store, and transmit data in forms that could be apprehended by humans, 21st century media involves infrastructural communication amongst machines, and hence the production of a sub-human texture of sensibility, to which humans lack any direct awareness. I have argued that data, specifically what I call “data of sensibility” – biometric data about our bodies, environmental data about the world, etc. – provide an indirect means for us to access this texture of sensibility. In my talk I will focus on several artworks that take up this idea of indirect access to sensibility via the mediation of data, and will explore how these artworks shed light on the implications of this new environmental reality for human experience.
