FATHAGOD.EXE
Ten years ago, the Walker Art Center brought together a survey of artists working from “the margins of the internet,” as part of Kimberly Drew’s “Towards a New Digital Landscape,” to answer a series of questions about how the internet influenced their practices. A decade later, the questions raised still feel unresolved.
For this panel, YATTA gathers four artists and peers whose practices stretch across music, performance, arts organizing, and critical theory to ask: where have our practices carried us and why? Together, they revisit their positions featured in the original article and trace where the work has carried them since—the pivots away from internet art, the moments of growth, and what feels most urgent now.
