PATTERNS OF PERCEPTION

This project brings together dance, music and technology to discuss the issues of surveillance and privacy.
In this work, we question how algorithms will shape our future in our increasingly digital lives. As machine learning advances exponentially, we need to be aware of the possible outcomes.

“Arguing that you don't care about the right to privacy because you have nothing to hide is no different than saying you don't care about free speech because you have nothing to say.”
― Edward Snowden
