Art, Misuse and Technology

More about the book

Micheál O'Connell's work is analyzed through the lens of artistic deflation and subversion of technical systems. John Roberts explores how artists navigate the complexities of digital culture, emphasizing the importance of understanding the impact of Artificial Intelligence on creativity and perception. O'Connell's approach combines technical knowledge with a comedic critique of algorithms that influence our lives, advocating for a broader critique of computational reason. This positions artists as key players in challenging the dominant narratives surrounding technology's role in society.
