Cliff Hammett

Cliff Hammett is an artist, educator and technologist who creates interdisciplinary projects threading together digital technology, ecology and community activism. His projects investigate how data-driven infrastructures are used to shape ecosystems, economies, bodies and spaces. Each work is researched through engagements with different communities, from sex work activists to bat ecologists. What results are sometimes humorous, sometimes unsettling art walks, community installations, participatory events, performances, and interactive digital systems. Each create opportunities for different people to respond to the political, ecological and spatial effects of digital technologies and bureaucracies.
