Short Bio
Birgit Bachler is an Austrian new media artist, designer and researcher based in Wellintgon (NZ). She has a background in interactive, audiovisual art, design and programming. Her past research has focused on the influence of emergent media on our everyday lives and how technology influences and manipulates social behavior. By dismantling and manipulating code and mechanisms of seemingly social technologies she creates critical, sometimes playful contemplations of new media. Birgit’s recent autonomous work features a dating-like website built upon grocery shopping data, an online social gardening network and wallpaper samples based on open data.
