iEAR Presents!

iEAR Presents! was developed by Rensselaer Arts Department faculty in 1983 as a media series that features pioneering contemporary electronic artists. Over the course of nearly 40 years, the program has presented several hundred important exhibitions, screenings and lectures, convening contemporary artists in a creative dialogue regarding electronic arts practice and theory with a participatory community of the general public and Rensselaer faculty and students. The series is curated around art and politics, confronting race relations, environmental justice issues, prison reform, immigration, social use of the internet, military and police force, the need for collective organization, feminist and queer representations, art and science, and more. 

iEAR Presents! Curators: Kathy High, Stephanie Loveless, Branda Miller

iEAR Presents! Contributors: Kate Galloway, Chrysi Nanou
