Jon McCormack on Different Bits

Acclaimed new media artist Jon McCormack joins us from Australia for a discussion of his work.
With a background in filmmaking and computer science, McCormack develops his work primarily through writing computer software. Strongly influenced by the new science of Artificial Life and the mediation of nature through technology, his work questions our nostalgic lament for a rapidly diminishing real world – a nature that is being redefined through technology.
