50 eyes on a scene

St John’s College, Oxford, OX1 3JP

Shannon Mattern from the New School (NYC) will be delivering an exciting talk, titled Fifty Eyes on a Scene. This talk replays a single urban scene from the perspective of several sets of machinic and creaturely eyes. By trying on the seeing subjectivities of other lookers, it will examine how various visual organs and tools render the world perceptible and knowable, and how that operationalization plays out a politics of recognition within the visual field. A drinks reception will follow in the auditorium courtyard.

The event is free: those wishing to attend can register here.
