From March 7 through August 15, 2018, Cultural Programs of the National Academy of Sciences presented the exhibition R. Luke DuBois: Love in the Time of Data. Curated by Anne Collins Goodyear, the exhibition was organized in celebration of the 50th anniversary of the landmark exhibition, Cybernetic Serendipity. Like many contemporary artists, DuBois' work resists easy categorization, encompassing filmmaking, printmaking, collaborative performance, computer programming, and data mining. Keenly aware of our relationship to the numerous streams of data that surround us, DuBois seeks to explore how we make sense of it, and how, in the process, we make sense of ourselves. The elegant pair of works brought together in this exhibition, A More Perfect Union and Fashionably Late to the Relationship, seek to explore strategies for connecting in a world that asks us to tailor our behaviors to accommodate new technologies, and in which personal subjectivity defies and escapes the regimented categories we may seek to impose upon it.
