SUMMARY:Embodied Intelligence & the Future of the Performing Body
DESCRIPTION:Join us for the second event in the virtual series BioArt Talks @CBIS\, presented in conjunction with RPI’s Center for Biotechnology\, the ARTS department & the School of Humanities\, Arts and Social Sciences\, and the Sanctuary for Independent Media’s NATURE Lab.  \n\n\n\nDr. Heidi Boisvert will discuss current empirical research methods and insights emerging from the Limbic Lab\, which employs biometrics\, machine learning and predictive models to isolate effective narrative ingredients across various mediums of expression. Boisvert will share how this research informs the creation of bio-adaptive\, networked dance and mixed reality theatre performances that interrogate how our bodies carry intergenerational trauma\, are surveilled\, controlled\, and spun out of balance by our dependence upon technology and speculate on future bodies.  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nHeidi Boisvert\, TED Resident.

Simply put\, she studies the role of the body\, the senses\, and emotion in human perception and social change. Boisvert is currently mapping the world’s first media genome\, while taking great care with its far-reaching ethical implications. She founded futurePerfect lab\, a creative agency and think-tank that works with social justice organizations to design playful emerging media campaigns to transform the \n\n\n\npublic imagination. She also co-founded XTH\, a company creating novel modes of expression through biotechnology and the human body. Presently\, she is working with David Byrne on Theater of the Mind\, a new immersive theater piece. Boisvert is an Assistant Professor of AI & the Arts at the University of Florida. She is also a Senior Research Fellow at the Norman Lear Center\, a research affiliate in the Open Documentary Lab at MIT and a member of NEW INC’s Creative Science track. www.heidiboisvert.com/ \n\n\n\n\n\nSee all BioArt Talks @CBIS here\n\n\n\nBioArt Talks @CBIS are an online series of one hour lunchtime presentations given by internationally recognized bioartists. Bioartists work with biological materials\, consider bioethics\, and look at the materiality of biosystems and the technologies used in biotechnology and scientific research. These artists cover a broad range of fascinating topics including research into lost environmental microbial systems\, cognitive states of mind and behavior\, biomechanical prototyping of assisted device design\, colony-building with non-humans\, and queering hormone disruption. The BioArt Talks @CBIS artists include: Orkan Telhan\, Heidi Boisvert\, Aisen Caro Chacin\, Anna Lindemann\, and Mary Maggic.
