Rebecca Uliasz
Student

Rebecca Uliasz is an artist and PhD Candidate in the department of Computational Media, Arts and Cultures at Duke University.

She is also interested in the broader impact of digital media and digital capitalism on social production and ontology, including technopolitical formations that complicate the post-Cold War narrative of global technological progress.

She is one half of the theory-noise performance group GOVERNANCE. Her work has appeared in locations such as Springer AI & Society: Special Issue, Ways of Machine Seeing, Review of Communication, Optimization: Towards a Critical Concept, JONMAS, APRJA and transmediale.
