Tiffany Funk is a writer, scholar, and artist whose work moves across sound, archives, and the feedback systems that shape attention. She holds a PhD in art history and an MFA in new media, and is Visiting Assistant Professor at the University of Illinois Chicago, where she teaches in the Interdisciplinary Education in the Arts (IDEA) program she co-developed. Her first book, HPSCHD: Inside John Cage and Lejaren A. Hiller Jr.'s Radical Multimedia Collaboration, is forthcoming from the University of Illinois Press. Drawing on archival research and her own background in computational art, the book examines Cage and Hiller's 1969 multimedia work as a foundational moment in the history of human-machine collaboration — programming as performance, code as score, listening as a way of inhabiting systems too large to hold whole. Her current scholarly project, Haunted Circuits and Sounding Care, traces feedback as care infrastructure across sound art, clinical practice, and digital platforms — from medieval chant to the BBC Radiophonic Workshop to the algorithmic loops of contemporary streaming and voice assistants. The book argues that the same formal grammar of cue, threshold, and return can hold attention in care or harvest it for capital, and listens for the difference. Funk is Editor-in-Chief of The Video Game Art Reader. Her scholarly writing has appeared in Leonardo, Antennae, edited collections from Routledge and Radius, and exhibition catalogs including Coded: Art Enters the Computer Age, 1952–1982 at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art. Her art practice in creative coding, performance, and electronics has been shown at the Beall Center for Art + Technology at UC Irvine and other university and gallery venues. [full cv]
