10/11/2006 :: This two-part exhibition (Part I and Part II ), organized by the MIT List Visual Arts Center, explores the various ways in which artists address technology that influences the senses.   The impact of new technology has reshuffled the established hierarchy of the senses and radically changed people's lives, and artists are responding to this epochal shift. The LVAC staff has collaborated with an international team of curators and advisors to develop the exhibition and related publication.   The exhibition will include several large commissions. Sissel Tolaas from Stord will be one of the artist participating in the exhibition.

There will also be a public discussion about the exhibition on Friday, October 13 at 6:00 PM in Bartos Theatre, where Sissel Tolaas will join other Sensorium artists and curators in a discussion moderated by Caroline A. Jones, editor of Sensorium: Embodied Experience, Technology, and Contemporary Art.
