ABOUT SPEKWORK STUDIO
SpekWork Studio (Cat Bluemke and Jonathan Carroll) will share their practice in new media technology, providing insights into the creation, coding, fabrication and other “behind-the-scenes” knowledge that serves to demystify generative artwork and digital media-based work. The artists will address attempting sustainable practices in digital art and bridge the perceived gap between electronics and the natural world.

ABOUT CAT BLUEMKE AND JONATHAN CARROLL
Cat Bluemke and Jonathan Carroll make art about work and play. Taking form as video games, performance, and expanded reality, their projects consider how technology regulates both labour and leisure. They have worked together since 2013, often as the collectives SpekWork Studio and Tough Guy Mountain. As SpekWork, they develop video games, virtual and augmented reality, and mobile applications that explore the connections between the subject of the user, worker, and player. They are currently based on the South Shore of Nova Scotia, in Mi’kma’ki.
