Combo of three "segmented" versions split apart by algorithm value. Following image "indexedSegMMImg4" is one of the three segments.
Do Algorithms Care? is a collaboration between artist Amanda Bennetts and data scientist Johanna Einsiedler. The project is realized in an installation that mimics a tech store, turning a critical lens on the commercialization of bio-data. Using the duo's open-source DIY smartwatches and interactive data interface, they explore the predictive potential of personal data and machine learning for well-being, inviting viewers to reconsider their relationship with data control and privacy.

Four examples of folding the same pattern starting in four different orientations. Notice how the folded versions differ though they are all converging on the same tiling pattern.
Something is rotten in the state of technology.
But amid all the hand-wringing over fake news, the cries of election deforming Kremlin disinformation plots, the calls from political podia for tech giants to locate a social conscience, a knottier realization is taking shape.

The Algorithm in the Room
MDP Design Dialogues Symposium + Exhibition with Tim Durfee, Ben Hooker, and Mimi Zeiger
The Algorithm in the Room: An Evening of the Post-Geographic brings together an interdisciplinary group of designers and thinkers to discuss relationships between algorithmic and spatial practices. The algorithm in the room is the unspoken technological subject that reorients our understanding of design outcomes, ethics/politics, and authorship. Yet to concretize the algorithm, to try to peg down its functional uses within design is to misunderstand its potentially slippery (and productive) role as a bad collaborator. Feral and unpredictable, it provokes human, systemic, and urbanistic response. Via conversations and through digital, video, and screen-based works, this symposium and exhibition looks to raise difficult questions regarding the politics of predictive/automatized software, its architectural and urban impacts, and the aftereffects of recalibrated design agency. Speakers include: Jeff Maki, urban strategist and Joanne McNeil, writer. Videos exhibited by John Szot Studio, Tim Durfee + Ben Hooker, Jenny Rodenhouse.
