The Guilty Eye Test, Crista Siglin & Isaac Wilder

“ Now we face a flood that makes each moment
a decision—conscious and unconscious—about
which data to treat as context, when context becomes sign, and how we negotiate meaning. We can see and hear one another despite impossible distance, but the physical arrangement of our cameras and displays makes it impossible to look each other in the eye. According to Eli Pariser, ours is “a world constructed from the familiar,” yet the fundamental is precluded as a matter of design.

The Guilty Eye Test is a meditation on intimacy in this age of filtration. It consists of two separate but proximate surfaces, upon which humans can comfortably lie down.
Above each surface is a camera concealed by a half-silvered mirror, and embedded in each surface, a monitor. The arrangement of material and light allows two humans to engage in a reciprocal gaze over a digital channel. The work asks about the implications of telepresence, and the ways in the which the architecture of contemporary human/computer interaction disincludes signifiers, such as eye contact. As experience, it questions what it means to be present. ”

What is the internet doing to us? The Times tech columnist Kevin Roose discovers what happens when our lives move online.
From the paper's abstract:
"Specifically, we explore how unique features of the online world may be influencing: a) attentional capacities, as the constantly evolving stream of online information encourages our divided attention across multiple media sources, at the expense of sustained concentration; b) memory processes, as this vast and ubiquitous source of online information begins to shift the way we retrieve, store, and even value knowledge; and c) social cognition, as the ability for online social settings to resemble and evoke real‐world social processes creates a new interplay between the Internet and our social lives, including our self‐concepts and self‐esteem"
