 g\nThrough performance\, interactive installations\, and live generativeme
 dia\, (Dis)consent explores how consent\, in an age of algorithms and ecol
 ogical crisis\, is assumed\, negotiated\, withdrawn\, and manipulated in r
 eal time. Audiences are invited to command bodies\, contribute data\, resh
 ape algorithmically generated images\, and participate in speculative ecol
 ogical systems.\nConsent is often imagined as a clear agreement between au
 tonomous individuals: an informed "yes" that authorizes participation and 
 a "no" that withdraws it. Yet contemporary life increasingly unfolds withi
 n systems where agency is distributed across algorithms\, interfaces\, ins
 titutions\, infrastructures\, and ecological networks. Within these enviro
 nments\, consent rarely appears as a stable agreement. Instead\, it is con
 tinuously assumed\, negotiated\, deferred\, or manipulated in real time.\n
 The works featured in (Dis)consent make these tensions visible where agenc
 y is distributed among audiences\, performers\, machines\, and environment
 s. As participation unfolds\, the question is no longer whether consent ha
 s been given\, but whether disconsent remains available.\nCan we still ref
 use\, withdraw\, redirect\, or renegotiate participation once we are alrea
 dy embedded within a system? Is disconsent something we actively choose\, 
 a capacity to interrupt the terms of engagement\, or does it emerge as a d
 isruptive force that exposes the limits of consent itself?\nArtists:\nKath
 erine Helen Fisher (@khfdance) — Cyborg Mirror II (Interactive Installatio
 n)\nWhat does it mean to be seen by an algorithm? This participatory gener
 ative media installation invites visitors to confront how algorithms recon
 struct identity\, desire\, and femininity in real time.\n\nMengna Da (@yum

 RY (Performance)\nWhere is our agency in the age of algorithms? This parti
 cipatory lecture performance turns the audience into operators of the arti
 st's body\, exposing the politics of digital labor and AI.\n\nShihan Zhang
  (@shihan.design) with Yilin Ye\, Mingyong Cheng\, Han Zhang\, Ziwei Liu\,
  and Jiaye Leng — Until the Bees Return (Interactive Installation + Perfor
 mance)\nWhat forms of care and labor might emerge when humans are recruite
 d to replace disappearing species? A live performance and interactive inst
 allation where the human body becomes ecological infrastructure for a worl
 d in ecological crisis.\n\nCo-organizers:\nUnderground Art And Design (@ua
 ad.art) is an artist-led curatorial platform and community based in NYC. I
 t supports and amplifies change-provoking artists and designers who work a
 cross emerging technology\, ecological futures and underrepresented cultur
 es.\nMesh Art Center (@meshartcenter) is a cultural hub where art meets re
 search\, technology\, and science. Based in Brooklyn\, they operate as a n
 etworked ecosystem that connects organizations\, artists\, curators\, rese
 archers\, engineers\, activists\, makers\, and thinkers across disciplines
  and geographies.
