Description

The “Media Art Other” podcasts were designed to explore the various practices of media arts professionals who work in everything from sound art and video to Artists and Curators who explore media art theory. In this first episode, I present Artist and Researcher David Bobier, who has worked in the field of (dis)ability art for decades. As a (self-professed) hard-of-hearing media artist, his creative practice is centred on researching and expanding vibrotactile technology as a creative medium. In 2014 he founded VibraFusion Lab (now renamed VibraFusion Lab Collective - VFLC) that aims to provide access to inclusive technologies for supporting greater accessibility in the arts. In this podcast, David speaks about his own experiences with (dis)abilities and foregrounds some of the organizations and people he has worked with along the way.
