26th ANNUAL NEW MUSIC & ART FESTIVAL


October 27 through November 20, 2005

Where: Fine Arts Center - Dorothy Uber Bryan Gallery

DNA (Do Not Assume)

Since the completion, 5 years ago, of the first deciphering of the human genome the molecular design of human beings and its assurance that an individual's most basic essence can be identified and manipulated, a tumult of controversy has ensued. Concerns about genetic discrimination, the morality of cloning, genetic engineering and the administration of health care have underscored the issue of DNA ownership and personal privacy. The artists in this exhibition have created works that examine this controversial issue from a variety of positions. The artists include Paul Vanouse, Amy M. Youngs and Larry Miller, among others.

October 28, 6-7 pm: Panel Discussion, Who's in Your Genes? Artistic, bioethical and scientific positions.
7 p.m. Opening reception

Closed November 11 for Veterans' Day

ARTalks presents... Art Performance: DREADMILL by Marcel O'Gorman


October 27, 2005

Where: Bowen Thompson Student Union - Room 202A (Lenhart Grand Ballroom)

6:00 PM

Art Performance: DREADMILL
Marcel O'Gorman, digital artist and Associate Professor, University of Detroit at Mercy

The DREADMILL is a treadmill hardwired to a computer so that a runner's speed and heart rate generate a multimedia show. In performances of 5-7 kilometers, Marcel O'Gorman runs through a grueling discussion of the relationship between technology and death, a subject he calls "NECROMEDIA." As O'Gorman sweats and suffers through the performance, the audience is asked to consider the fate of the human body in a digital culture.
