As part of 516 ARTS' "Digital Latin America" exhibition, artists speak about revitalizing lost/fading languages of Central America and the Southwestern U.S., challenges of speaking a foreign language in a new country, communication through auditory and tactile means, and communication between humans and machines.
All of these artists utilize digital technology in their work, through presentation and/or research methods, to creatively demonstrate ways in which technology can preserve, revive, and reconstruct how languages are experienced between platforms, generations and cultures.
Featured artists are Paula Gaetano-Adi (Argentina/Texas), Matt Garcia (USA), Paola Torres Nuñez del Prado (Peru) and Gabriel Vanegas (Colombia). Moderated by Shelle Sanchez. This session is made possible in part by a grant from the New Mexico Humanities Council, an affiliate of the National Endowment for the Humanities.
