About the Program:
Discover the world of art and technology as told by the foremost authority
on multimedia visual arts, Bill Viola, acclaimed video artist and MacArthur Fellow.
He'll discuss his current work-in-progress, The Night Journey: An Interactive World,
a unique art and technology piece based on the universal story of a mystic's journey
towards enlightenment. This piece will be the first large-scale computer game developed
expressly for artistic and non-commercial purposes, and the first uniquely digital
expression of a timeless spiritual story.
