Join us for an artist talk with Ari Melenciano! Ari Melenciano is an artist, technologist, researcher, and cultural theorist. Her art and research practice explores the societal subconscious intellect, computational anthropology, ethnographical morphing of artistic and psychological expression across diasporas, the formation and embodiment of mythology and rituals, and the materialization of polymathic research in the form of transcendent sciences.
