About

JASON BERNAGOZZI

Video, Sound, Emerging Media Art

Bio

Jason Bernagozzi is an artist whose work examines and critiques the codes embedded

within the psyche of media culture. Their work uses the real-time features of video and

electronic media as a way to engage with interdisciplinary concepts as a dialogical system

of emerging languages. They are particularly interested in the potential of non-human agents as

collaborators in the artistic endeavor as a way to explore new concepts that exist outside

the sphere of human assumption and logic. Bernagozzi’s work has been supported through

numerous grants and awards from organizations such as the New York State Council for

the Arts and the New York Foundation for the Arts and has been exhibited nationally and

internationally at exhibitions such as the European Media Art Festival in Osnabruk,

Germany; the Festival Les Instants Vidéo Numériques et Poétiques in Marsaille, France;

the Ilman Museum of Art in Seoul, South Korea and the Currents New Media Festival in

Santa Fe, New Mexico.

Jason is also a co-founder of the experimental media art non-profit organization Signal

Culture. Since 2014, Signal Culture has given residencies for over 260 artists, toolmakers

and researchers from 16 countries and 30 states. Bernagozzi sees Signal Culture as an

extension of their practice, facilitating the opportunity to hack, program and reimagine the

purpose of various technologies in a fluid, real-time studio that encourages cross

disciplinary investigation and a critical relationship to mass media. They are currently an

Associate Professor of Electronic Art at Colorado State University.
