From selfies to google maps, drones to Facebook—we are surrounded by technology that converts our lives into algorithmic data. Our faces, bodies, likes and dislikes, friends, families, and even death become a means of categorization, representation, voyeurism, and expectation. In an age when our ability to “see” each other is coded with multiple meanings (infrared imaging, facial recognition technology, race and gender profiling, social media activity) how does the act/technology/data of “seeing” impact our interaction with each other and the world around us? The Invisible View contemplates technological processes of “seeing” and its influence on representation, identity and social control.
