Sorting Daemons
"Digital information-gathering - in the form of images or data - increasingly affects our lives, tracking our movements, affiliations and consumer preferences. Such "sorting daemons" are used to control access to services, and to protect property and public order, while subtly reinforcing existing streams of influence and creating new ones." "Curated by Jan Allen with Sarah E. K. Smith, the exhibition Sorting Daemons complements the multi-faceted research project The New Transparency. The sixteen artists in this exhibition take measure of surveillance systems by producing works addressing their social, political and aesthetic dimensions. The publication features essays by Jan Allen, Kirsty Robertson and Sarah E. K. Smith expanding on the exhibition's theme through analysis of these and other landmark works of art." --Book Jacket.
