Podcast appearances and mentions of nancy perloff

In this Le Random discussion we are so pleased to speak to a scholar of art history in Dr. Nancy Perloff from the Getty Research Institute. She joins Le Random's editor-in-chief Peter Bauman. Perloff recently curated Sensing the Future: Experiments in Art and Technology (E.A.T.), showing at the Getty Center as part of PST Art. The pair explores E.A.T.'s influential role in merging art, technology and engineering, a movement founded in 1966 by Bell Labs engineer Billy Klüver and artists like Robert Rauschenberg and John Cage. Dr. Perloff shares insights on E.A.T.'s success, including as an early digital art network, as well as its collaborations between artists and engineers (mostly from Bell Labs). This included performances like Nine Evenings: Theatre and Engineering and immersive experiences at the 1970 Osaka World Expo's Pepsi Pavilion. They touch on curatorial challenges, EAT's experimental nature, its role in building interdisciplinary networks, and its lasting, yet underappreciated, impact on art and technology.

Hosted by Al Filreis and featuring Marjorie Perloff, Danny Snelson, and Nancy Perloff.
