COLLIDER6: DATA
In the age of data being associated with government spying or commercial interests defining data, information and knowledge are very difficult.
C6 makes no attempt at defining these words or commenting on the use.
Instead C6 focuses on the artist, the designer, the message, the voice, the audience, the impact. C6 sets a stage to allow artists to define what and how data can inform or influence their work and our lives. The artist’s interpretation of data creates dialog providing us with a new shared experience. An experience of common knowledge, in turn translating to data, reversing the pattern of data building life to life building data.
Life derives data.
