Anna Munster is an artist, writer, curator and researcher. She is the author of Materializing Culture [2006] and an editor of the online journal Fibreculture. She regularly collaborates with Michele Barker on largescale multi-channel interactive works which explore the relations between perception, magic and the brain. Munster and Barker’s HokusPokus [2011] visually referenced 19th century magic, early cinema and traveling science shows, alluding to the proximity between the history of magic and the genesis of both optical time-based media and the brain sciences.
