SUMMARY:"Age of You" Drop-in Activity: Defying Facial Recognition
DESCRIPTION:Think you can outsmart facial recognition? In this workshop\, participants will design and construct masks and headpieces inspired by CV Dazzle\, a project by artist Adam Harvey that provides information and tips for creating “looks” that can camouflage the face from face detection technology. Using elements such as asymmetry\, tonal inverse and the concealment of certain facial features\, you will be able to learn and test which design combinations are most effective in hiding from facial recognition technology. \nFree. No tickets or registration required. Drop-in and stay as long as you would like. \n  \n\n

SUMMARY:Artists on Artists: Hannah Epstein on "Age of You"
DESCRIPTION:Hannah Epstein works at the cross-section of textiles\, experimental games and video art to reimagine the iconography of popular culture\, highlighting the cultural negotiation between bottom-up (folk) and top-down (institutional) storytelling. By blurring the lines between traditional craft\, popular culture and contemporary art\, she aims to isolate and eliminate notions of hierarchy as archaic relics. Epstein will lead a tour and discussion of Age of You\, with refreshments to follow. \nMOCA’s Artists on Artists series is a programme where local artists are invited to discuss MOCA’s current exhibitions\, or a single artwork\, in any format or direction of their choosing. \n\n  \n\n \nHannah Epstein\, You’re Tearing Me Apart\, 2019.\n

SUMMARY:What is The Extreme Self?
DESCRIPTION:Shumon Basar\, Douglas Coupland and Agnieszka Kurant in conversation.\nModerated by Joachim Johnson \nDuring the opening week of Age of You\, we present a conversation that delves into the exhibition’s key concern: data. How have we become our data\, and how is our data becoming us? Artist Agnieszka Kurant and two of the exhibition’s curators\, Shumon Basar and Douglas Coupland\, are joined by moderator Joachim Johnson of HXOUSE to discuss our current and ever-accelerating technological moment. \nThis panel discussion is presented in partnership with HXOUSE. \nBiographies \nInterdisciplinary artist Agnieszka Kurant explores how complex social\, economic and cultural systems can operate in ways that confuse distinctions between fiction and reality or nature and culture. She investigates “the economy of the invisible\,” in which immaterial and imaginary entities\, fictions\, phantoms and emergent processes influence political and economic systems. \nSince 1991 Douglas Coupland has written thirteen novels. He is a columnist for the Financial Times\, and since 2000\, amplified his visual art production with a number of museum retrospectives\, in Canada\, The Netherlands and Germany. \nJoachim Johnson is a Toronto-based artist\, creative consultant and the Creative Director of HXOUSE; a non-profit\, next-generation incubator and accelerator at the forefront of fostering innovation and opportunity for creative entrepreneurs. For over ten years\, Johnson has worked internationally as a photographer and filmmaker with brands including Oscar de la Renta and Tom Ford\, and with artists including Nelly Furtado and The Weeknd. \nShumon Basar is a Berlin/Dubai based Commissioner of the Global Art Forum. He is Editor-at-Large at Tank magazine\, Contributing Editor at Bidoun\, Curator-at-Large at Art Jameel and a member of the Fondazione Prada’s Thought Council. \nReserve your tickets \nThis event is sold out. Please see all our Age of You public programmes here. \nAge of You will be open until 7pm on September 5. Please arrive early to view the exhibition. \n\n \nAgnieszka Kurant\, A.A.I. 2017.\nSculptures built by colonies of living termites from colored sand\, gold and broken crystals.\nCourtesy the artist and Tanya Bonakdar Gallery\, New York / Los Angeles.
