Summary:
This lecture focused on the more experimental versions of art and photography and the movement of surrealism from the 1900's. This being that artist began to take a more bizarre/dreamlike approach to their work to convey messages. More contemporary artist in actuality use this idea of surrealism in the sense that they use new and unusual methods to create art such as 'glitch art'; taking glitches from google earth and turning them into surreal versions of landscapes. The idea of this is to play into things like the uncanny valley; this being to create a response into the viewer that makes the art seem almost like the real but at the same time, slightly and possibly disturbingly off by a little.
