Online, we create an alter ego, not bound by any of the physical constraints that exist in our everyday physical life. The question is who will you choose to be in this new iteration of yourself? Will your personality remain true to your IRL self or will elements of it enhance in this digital realm? This digital self can interact with others - or with artificial intelligence - and can become a social being with its own complete identity and character. Artists are exploring the possibilities for reaching audiences in these public digital spaces as well, but how do they do this and how does this differ from digital art in the physical realm?
Episode 4 features Ksawery Kirklewski, Harriet Davey and The Fabricant .

How can light be used to reconstruct our perception of space? What happens when we fuse art, mathematical equations and human experience?
This second episode of ‘But is I.T. Art?’ explores the role of light in new media art and how it can be used as in creating the illusion of a physical material to reconstruct our surroundings. 
Podcast Host Viktor Vandervelde dives into conversation with Matt Clark, the Founder of London-based practice ‘United Visual Artists’ (creators of Topologies #1’ shown in exhibition ‘Shifting Proximities’) and Alma van de Burgwal – former ‘Exhibition Host’ at Nxt Museum, currently studying a masters in architecture – to discuss light as a medium, its role in architecture and the impact on the human senses.
