About this exposition

From 2008 - 2010, I served as an embedded artist with the Department of Innovation and Technology (DoIT) at the City of Chicago, accompanying the development of the Digital Access Agenda, and the Smart Chicago Recovery proposal. In 2012, a new mayor initiated a Cultural Plan process for Chicago. Invited by the director for Cultural Planning for the City of Chicago’s Department of Cultural Affairs and Special Events, I conducted a Cultural Plan open house for attendees of the Chicago Creative Expo. This opened a door, locally, for organizations to consider more formal inclusion of art inflected perspectives in community and urban planning processes. Between 2012 and 2014, I was invited to work with the Foundation for Homan Square, the South East Chicago Commission, the Evanston Art Center, and the arts funding organization, 3Arts. SAIC graduate students participated in all Deliberative Cultural Ecology projects.
