In the Corporate Shadows: Community Arts Practice and Technology

The authors discuss their work, which deals with the issue of technology in two distinct ways. First, technology is part of the work’s content—a number of projects focus on concerns related to technology in the workplace. Second, the work itself and its production values are affected by the technologies employed in the cultural industries and, to a lesser degree, the arts. The following article deals with both these aspects, focussing on a recent project, No Power Greater, that examines the effects of the new competitiveness and technology on workers in the aerospace industry.
