Since its inception in spring 1997, the Art, Technology, and Culture Colloquium at UC Berkeley has presented numerous evening lectures from invited artist and media theorists. Through its international mailing list, web pages and posters, the series has established an international reputation for fostering intellectual dialogue at the intersection of art, technology, and culture. Ken Goldberg (Professor, College of Engineering) initiated this lecture series with Kevin Radley (Art Practice).

Since 2001, BAM/PFA’s Conversations program, in collaboration with the Art, Technology, and Culture Colloquium, has been proud to produce and present this online archive of Art, Technology, and Culture Colloquium talks.
