In conjunction with BRIC’s Lori Ledis Emerging Curator exhibition INTER. Act, Reciprocity in Media, interactive media artists Hwayong Jung and Sue G. Syn will discuss the use of cutting-edge technology and new media in art not only to promote communication and interaction, but also to emphasize and draw attention to socio-cultural issues through their work. The lecture will explore the importance of ubiquitous technology and social media platforms in contemporary society and the reciprocity they promote, with both artists presenting how they implemented and accomplished public engagement using these devices in their own work.

Hwayong Jung will focus on balance and harmony.
Sue G. Syn will concentrate on technology, communication and humanity.

This public program is FREE and open to the public. For more information, please visit the BRIC website, www.bricartsmedia.org
