MFA Computer Art Thesis Exhibition 2010The exhibition will feature work by Rebecca Adorno-Davilla, Anis Haron, Jungyeob Kim, Justin Miller, along with many other graduating artists. Rebecca Adorno-Davila is a new media artist who explores the deconstruction of linear narratives and the invasion of privacy. The work focuses on human relations and their social context by means of sound structures and interactivity. Actively involved with music, multimedia, computer systems and programming, Anis Haron’s work examines the applications and boundaries of indeterminately produced audio in contemporary sound-based performance and installation art. Jungyeob Kim explores the possibilities of different types of relationships between technology and human beings. Expanding his creative repertoire into the realm of 3D computer animation, Justin Miller uses the computer as a way of synthesizing aspects of traditional static art forms into a single mode of expression.
