Searching for a Technological Agency within Art.

Featured on Furtherfield's Community Blog | By Luke Munn.

In the wake of the Arab spring and the financial crisis and in the midst 
of the massive abuse of privacy unveiled in the NSA/Prism revelations, 
agency would seem to be all the more urgent. While problematic as pure 
activism, art is inherently political, opening into the wider plane of 
aesthetics which define “a cartography of the visible, the intelligible 
and also of the possible.” Are there art practices which provide models 
for this moment, which engender critical agency within their viewing 
publics, encouraging a deeper engagement with technology?
