Hailed by Rolling Stone as “a genre unto herself,” guitarist, composer, and performance artist Kaki King presents DATA NOT FOUND — an immersive audiovisual journey featuring new music, projection mapping, and a host of new performative tools.
Humans have been collecting data since the dawn of time, but in today’s world, data collection is not limited to academic study and record-keeping: it is omnipresent, powerful and increasingly controversial. How are we harnessing this power? How should we harness this power?
DATA NOT FOUND explores a broad range of contemporary issues, including artificial intelligence, the natural world, “big data” and personal empowerment, using her guitar as her proverbial magnifying glass. With direction by Annie Dorsen, whose works explore the intersection of algorithms and live performance,_ DATA NOT FOUND_ is an ongoing investigation and collaboration between a talented cast of performers, contributors, and researchers.
This performance is recommended for ages 8 and up.
