From Male Pregnancy to Medical Nanotechnology:
Art, Medicine, and the Human Body in Cyberspace

In his work, artist and filmmaker Virgil Wong grapples with bioethically vexed medical technologies, including nanorobots, a smart-as-human genetically engineered mouse, and a male pregnancy program. His fictional "RYT-Dwayne Medical Center" (www.rythospital.com) had been called "disarmingly authentic" by the New York Times. As an independent filmmaker, Wong produced and directed "Murmur," an experimental medical film which premiered at the 2002 Sundance Film Festival. In the previous year, he received a grant from the National Endowment for the Arts for an exhibition called Corporeal Landscape. As a visual artist, he has exhibited projects about the human body, medicine and technology in galleries and museums around the world. For more information, please visit http://virgilwong.com.

Rounds begin at 5:00 pm, followed by refreshments.
Free and open to the public.
