Tauschinger-Dempsey is a research-based artist working at the intersection of visual culture studies, anthropology, and social studies. His current art practice investigates formulaic “western” life styles and military managerial models, including surveillance, terrorism, corporatism, suspicion, and technology. Recent works include experimentation with interactive robots (TRASHBOT), media and photographic installations on collateral damage in the War on Terror (Suspensions), and multimedia collage connecting ancient and modern time and space (The Great Ziggurat of Ur and Google’s Quest for the Book of Sand). He has also been published in Media Fields Journal (2014). Prior to that, Tauschinger-Dempsey completed an interdisciplinary MFA in sculpture and architecture at the Academy of Arts Düsseldorf, Germany and an MFA in Digital Media at the Rhode Island School of Design in Providence, RI. His work has been displayed across the United States and has been recently acquired by the Duke Kenan Institute for Ethics and the Granoff Center for the Creative Arts at Brown University.
