Tara Kelton | Contemporary Art

17 Jul 2024

Description

Tara Kelton is an Indian-American artist living in Bangalore. She investigates forms of drawing and the relationship between human and machine in light of new technology and tools of image production. Her practice focuses on the diminishing role of the human in contemporary society as it is being replaced by automation, AI, and digital mediation, and the remote control of labor by Western bodies and corporations. Tara is also co-editor of the publishing series Silicon Plateau, an art project and publishing series that explores the intersection of technology, culture and society in Bangalore. In this episode, we talk about her life, work, and opinions on internet, automation and techno-utopian/dystopian future we are heading into.  RELEVANT LINKS (Chronological) Tara Kelton - https://tarakelton.com Silicon Plateau - https://siliconplateau.info Yes my wish project - https://tarakelton.com (Scroll Down) Magic 8 Ball - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magic_8_Ball Arlington, Texas - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arlington,_Texas Ali Akbar Khan - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ali_Akbar_Khan Millennium (Indian band) - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Millennium_(Indian_band) VHS - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/VHS Parsons Design - https://www.newschool.edu/parsons/ Zach Lieberman - http://zach.li Open Frameworks - https://openframeworks.cc Processing - https://processing.org Undergraduate Thesis Project - Outsourced Typeface (Mentioned as Untitled Project in the Podcast) - https://tarakelton.com (Scroll Down) Black Box Project - https://tarakelton.com (Scroll Down) No Storage Search Engine - https://tarakelton.com (Scroll Down) Unproductive Solutions Exhibition - https://unproductivesolutions.com Marialaura Ghidini - https://marialaura-ghidini.hotglue.me Rebekah Modrak - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rebekah_Modrak Autopotraits - https://tarakelton.com (Scroll Down) Microwork - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microwork Amazon Mechanical Turk - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amazon_Mechanical_Turk Mechanical Turk Original Story - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mechanical_Turk Amazon 'Just Walk Out' AI tech News Report -  https://www.livemint.com/companies/news/amazons-ai-based-just-walk-out-checkout-tech-was-powered-by-1000-indian-workers-manually-11712196827721.html News Story on Mechanical Workers by BBC - https://www.bbc.com/news/business-48881827 John Cleese - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Cleese Kevin Roose’s Chat with AI Bot named ‘Sydney’ - https://x.com/kevinroose/status/1626216340955758594?lang=en Northern Lights for Sydney - https://tarakelton.com (Scroll Down)
