We Refuse, We Want, We Commit focuses on the role of artists in building better technical systems for the Internet and beyond. The artists in the exhibition center technology and society in their work, in dialogue with themes of ethical technology, cautionary tales from the current Web, and artist approaches to building technology we want to see. We aim to open up the conversation about how artists and cultural workers can begin moving in solidarity to make meaningful change in technology—with the hope that just maybe, by reflecting on the current state of our digital lives, we can avoid repeating the same mistakes as we envision and create the future.
