Daniel Shanken - The Cascades
Tue-Sat: 11-5pm
The Cascades is a multi-channel installation that brings together an ongoing series of work by artist Daniel Shanken. The installation focuses on networks of information that run in the background of our lives, filtered and curated by intelligent algorithms that push bias and dissonance.
The installation creates a spontaneous environment that allows viewers to enter through interfaces other than the normal internet screen space we confront on a daily basis. The work reflects the remnants of discarded technological production, oversaturated media landscapes, data centers, landfills, and mining tunnels. It draws on the intangible data-points, machine learning algorithms, and rendered objects we often encounter in the periphery.
