James Bridle. Conference: A screaming comes across the sky
Conference: "Technology drone and landscape of this". The drone is a glamorous technology, the charismatic megafauna of contemporary network ecologies. Its influence is spread far and wide, extending beyond military aviation into civilian policing, labour issues, autonomous systems and individual affect. Through projects including the Drone Shadows, Dronestagram, and A Quiet Disposition, I will explore various areas in which the figure of the drone allows us to better understand the landscape of the present.
