SUMMARY:Drawing to Communicate with Dalia Hassan
DESCRIPTION:MOCA Toronto will be temporarily closed effective Saturday\, March 14\, to mitigate the impact of COVID-19 on our communities. We are closely monitoring the situation with the Public Health Agency of Canada and Toronto Public Health.\nWe will be rescheduling this event. Please stay tuned on our website for new dates or changes. \n\nThough drawing is typically viewed as a springboard to further artistic production\, this workshop will explore drawing as a fundamental practice in its own right. Participants will be encouraged to express their personal experiences through the lines\, shapes\, colours and textures they draw\, contributing to and building upon each other’s work in a group activity designed to open up communication and response. \nIn addition to guiding the workshop\, artist and Akin studio resident Dalia Hassan will share her experiences in contemporary drawing and display samples of her work to provide participants with examples of different drawing techniques. \n  \nDalia Hassan is a Cairo-born\, Toronto-based visual artist. She received her Bachelor of Visual Arts from the American University in Cairo in 2007 and has spent the majority of her career working as an independent artist in Egypt. Hassan’s earlier work explored themes relating to city life\, reflecting the abnormalities of her urban environment in a fantasized setting\, often with gallows humor. Hassan’s recent practice\, however\, has turned toward abstraction\, focusing on the mind and the relationship between consciousness and existence. Her work has been exhibited in Cairo and Toronto. \nThis workshop occurs on TD Community Sunday. Admission to the museum is free all day! \n\n\nDalia Hassan\, DRW 12-19\, sumi ink\, felt-tip pen and watercolour on paper\, 8.5 x 11 inches\, 2019

SUMMARY:"Age of You" Drop-In Activity: Defying Facial Recognition
DESCRIPTION:Think you can outsmart facial recognition? In this workshop\, participants get to 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. \nLearn more about Age of You \n  \n\n

SUMMARY:Digital Justice Lab Workshop: Mapping Data Bodies
DESCRIPTION:From the apps we use on our devices to the surveillance systems on city streets\, we live in a datafied world\, in which information about us is being collected on a daily basis. In this workshop\, we will navigate the impact of datafication to form a better understanding of our “data bodies” and how they are used\, stored and shared by governments and corporations. \nThe Digital Justice Lab’s (DJL) mission is to focus on building a more just and equitable digital future. Working alongside technologists\, community activists and policymakers\, DJL helps shape a better public understanding of technology and its impact on communities across the country. Through capacity building\, public engagement and continuous collaboration\, DJL supports diverse communities in making informed decisions around digital issues. Digital Justice Lab is a project of Tides Canada\, a registered Canadian charity dedicated to providing uncommon solutions for the common good. \nThis workshop is part of a series of workshops presented in partnership with Digital Justice Lab for Age of You. \nRegister here \n  \n\n  \n \nIllustration by Annalise Hyunh

SUMMARY:"Age of You" Drop-In Activity: Draw the Internet
DESCRIPTION:What does the internet look like — to you? MOCA invites you to consider this question while exploring Age of You\, an exhibition highlighting such themes as data\, artificial intelligence\, surveillance and the limitless capabilities of the internet. After exploring the exhibition\, head to Floor 1 to draw how you picture the internet in your mind’s eye. You can add your drawing to a cumulative piece that will reveal\, over the course of the day\, how our visitors see the internet — as an infinite\, sprawling collective of images and ideas. \n  \n\n

SUMMARY:Digital Justice Lab Workshop: Imagining Feminist Interfaces
DESCRIPTION:What does it mean to imagine a feminist digital voice interface? Through a series of speculative design exercises\, we will prototype and discuss what voice technologies might look like if we designed them in line with the central commitments of feminism: participation\, agency\, embodiment\, equity\, empowerment\, plurality and justice. Participants will learn the basics of designing a conversational UI but no prior coding skills are needed. \nImagining Feminist Interfaces is presented in partnership with Digital Justice Lab and Trinity Square Video. \ntendernet is a collective of female-identifying technologists\, writers\, educators\, designers and activists whose work explores speculative design\, networked devices and privacy through an intersectional feminist framework. Most recently\, the collective has led workshops aimed at developing radical feminist interventions to emerging technologies\, with a focus on voice interfaces. Becca Ricks and Zoe Bachman are co-founders of tendernet. tendernet.us \nThe Digital Justice Lab’s (DJL) mission is to focus on building a more just and equitable digital future.
