Eduardo Kac (pronounced "Katz") has concentrated on the way in which communicative experiences transform or become a work of art. Kac's work reveals the alternately poetic, political, personal, and philosophical approaches by which the artist examines contemporary life and speculates on our collective future. Kac's work has been shown worldwide, and he is the author of the upcoming book, Telepresence and Bio Art -- Networking Humans, Rabbits and Robots, published by The University of Michigan Press, 2005.
