New media artist: David Rokeby
I chose David Rokeby for my first new media artist because as I was scrolling through and trying to find an artist, I came across a video of his called "Very Nervous System" and he's standing in front of a computer that observes the physical gestures of human bodies through a video camera and then translates them into an improvised music directly related to the qualities of the movements themselves in real-time which I found to be really interesting. The video is linked below.

New media artist: Lynn Hershman Leeson
I chose her for my second artist because she has a work titled "Room of One's Own" where she has the viewer look into a little box which displays a little television set and in the little room, there is a woman that asks the viewer why you're looking at her. The viewer can also see themselves looking through the viewer so the woman is looking at you, looking at her. Slightly confusing to explain but it's a really interesting piece.
