Simon Denny
Simon Denny (1982, New Zealand) is an artist working in installation. In June he was invited to a summit of the European Parliament gathering thinkers and parliamentarians to reflect on the future of the Internet and the ideal role of the Parliament. Denny initiated a performance in which artists and critics contributed to an improvised feedback stream, reacting live to the summit’s talks in a group chat resembling a twitter feed.This chat feed and the official parliamentary voices were then summarized into illustrations in real time, performing the difficult task readers have today when sorting through official and non-official voices online.
The presentation at BOZAR gives a first viewing of these drawings with related artwork, reflecting on the limits of technological responses to political problems and who has agency in today’s communication technology infrastructure.
