Code Switch: Distributing Blackness, Reprogramming Internet Art

“Code Switch was a multi-venue exhibition that foregrounded the role that Black makers have played in the formation of digital practice. The exhibition statement reads, “Code Switch surveys how artists and creative technologists rattle the promise of cyberspace as an equitable site of representation and liberation, upending it as an undercurrent and generative force for both inquiry and resistance.” This show has led me to deeply consider the ways in which Blackness itself is a technology that adapts, mutates, and generates forms anew.”
