Abstract

Agnes will talk about her work as a specialist technician at UAL’s Creative Computing Institute, including the development of the Technical Skills workshop program, which teaches extra-curricular ‘meta-skills’ that students can apply across their classes. Her talk will explore the idea of what it means for students to develop an agential relationship to technology, especially within a ’non technical’ context, and the facilitation of political, social and creative entry points to engage computation in an expanded sense.

Free registration via Pretix
