Queertech.io = ART(URL, IRL)

Tech-based artworks from queer-identifying artists around the world.

Overview

Co-presented with Midsumma Festival 2018, QueerTech.io requires you to take a leap into the queer digital realm with an art project that presents a range of tech-based artworks from queer-identifying artists around the world. Able to be viewed online entirely from the comfort of your home, QueerTech.io will also be taking over RMIT's Spare Room and Lightscapes galleries for a physical presentation of works that push the boundaries of digital art and creative practice.

As the boundaries of digital art only expand and become increasingly obscure, QueerTech.io responds to the growing interest in the practice of "queer tech" seeing local and international artists come together — both digitally and physically — with provocative artworks and online projects to enact conversation in the budding medium.

QueerTech.io is on now at RMIT's Spare Room and Lightscapes galleries until Thursday, March 22 – or you can check it all out online at QueerTech.io.
