In her first paper presentation, 2009 Interarts Alumna Stacey Stormes will present “The Mediated Body” at the 2014 Computer Art Congress in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. “The Mediated Body” discusses intersections between new media and body, and will be published in a catalogue that accompanies the congress. Stormes showed a video last year at the 2013 Congress held in Paris. The conference theme this year is “Art for All,” and Storme’s paper was selected in a double blind review process. The congress runs September 1-4.

Stormes currently is an adjunct faculty member at The Art Institute of Tampa.
