Moogfest 2017

Can technology help us become more human? More humane? Join the Life Lines Collective for a workshop on using technology to create fugitive social spaces, amplify neglected voices, and inspire new approaches to wicked social problems, including capital punishment, mass incarceration, and narratives of racial difference. Participants will have the opportunity to learn more about telephone-based verbal computing application interfaces like the one the Life Lines Collective uses to record and revise work, speak with incarcerated contributors, and – depending on the background and interest of attendees – hack a script to create video representations of contributors’ work using recordings and their transcripts.
