A "Science Fair" for the 21st Century:
Y2K16 aesthetically enacted the technological controversies of Campaign 2016 -- the post-fact society, filter bubble, algorithmic discrimination, social isolation, uncivil political discourse, etc. -- to spur public engagement, and civic education, on post-digital American politics.

Living Art Exhibition & Public Forum
Minneapolis, MN and Online. May 2022.
Over 26,000 shots were fired in Minneapolis between January and September of 2021. These stories of gun violence are always “counted” in fatalities and injuries. Behind the numbers, however, there is always an “uncounted” story of trauma – for victims and their families – that can’t be quantified.
SCHOOL SHOOTINGS: A CULTURE OF VIOLENCE
Community Education & Empowerment Event
Minneapolis, MN and Online. October 2021.
As with every other part of society, technology is changing public safety forever. The need to ensure basic principles of human and civil rights in the mechanisms of digital public safety has never been more pressing. The IAA and its partners participated in a public discussion and technology workshop focused on surveillance, privacy rights, racial justice, and digital ethics. The event was hosted on October 20, 2021.
SCHOOL SHOOTINGS: A CULTURE OF VIOLENCE
International juried exhibition & civic forum.
Minneapolis and online. May 2020. (COVID)
In this time of uncertainty, COVID-19 -has contaminated everything: Our homes, our lives, our communication, and even our shared reality. But how can we use art to cleanse and decontaminate our world of the “political plagues” -- cultural divisions, medical inequities, and digital pollution -- that COVID has called greater attention to? Curated to catalyze cross-cultural conversations on our post-COVID-19 existence and start to rebuild our common humanity and reality.

SCHOOL SHOOTINGS: A CULTURE OF VIOLENCE
IAA ZINE EXCHANGES
The IAA has often used zine-making events and zine exchanges as opportunities to facilitate dialogue around issues related to public health, mental health, and cultural politics. Zine events are a straightforward means for students and communities to playfully offer their own perspectives on issues they normally might not talk about with people they might not normally talk to.
