Suchi Reddy Community Conversation: Bias and Belonging in AI
Tuesday, February 4, 2025 11:30 AM – 12:30 PM
Description
Join the 2024-25 Christian A. Johnson Artist-in-Residence* Suchi Reddy for lunch and conversation about the Bias and Belonging project she is creating at Colgate University. Reddy visits Colgate this year to host a series of community conversations centered on how the dualities of bias and belonging, reflection and misreflection are amplified by the exponentially increasing presence of artificial intelligence in every aspect of our daily lives. We invite you to join in the conversation to share your lived experience of advanced technology and AI.Presented in collaboration with the Women’s Studies Brown Bag Series.*Presented by the Art Department and the Christian A. Johnson Foundation. The Christian A. Johnson Endeavor Foundation Artist-in-Residence was established in 1986 as a challenge grant in support of the arts at Colgate. The residency program permits one or more artists to become part of the Colgate community every academic year.

How do transformations in technical imaging recast our experience of the corporeal? This film program gathers together short, experimental works exploring scenes of physical exhilaration and disintegration, probing the intimate interventions made by technology into the body: its appetites, its vulnerabilities, and its display. We are invited to consider the civilizational logics that organize human beings for combat, entertainment, and pleasure.Co-sponsored by Film and Media Studies - Feb 56:00 PMCreative EndeavorsThe Arts | The Palace

For alliances with the beaver people features an 11 meter-long embroidered tapestry that illustrates key moments in the history of beaver-human relationships, tracing how rivers evolve through collaborations between these two species. An explicit reference to the 11th-century Bayeux Tapestry that depicted 58 unique scenes of battle, Husky’s work uses this tapestry form to visualize cross-species mutuality and regeneration rather than battle. The exhibition also features a documentary film about the Vermont naturalist Patti Smith, who takes us into her world of beaver friends and teachers. For the exhibition reception on February 12, Husky will be joined by a panel of researchers, writers, and naturalists (including Patti Smith) to discuss beaver ecologies and the future of their watersheds.In collaboration with Picker Art Gallery.
