Syntax errors: To Be Announced

October 23, 2001
Performance Lecture


About the Program

Jeanne Randolph, a psychoanalyst and writer of highly inventive visual arts criticism will directly address the performative body of the technologically enhanced lecturer in her Syntax errors presentation. Randolph draws upon her research interests evident in articles such as 'Ambiguity and the Technological Object', 'Technology and the Meaningful Body', and 'Why Stoics Box'.

Syntax errors are the symbols and letters produced by technology when given the task of translating data from one representational form to another. This series of three 'performed lectures' investigates the relationship between authoritative language, presentation technologies, and performance art. Syntax errors: a series of performed lectures was presented by Artspeak and co-sponsored by SFU's School for the Contemporary Arts.
