Allison Berkoy is an interdisciplinary artist based in Brooklyn. Mixing
physical and electronic media, she creates video sculptures, interactive
installations, and performances between humans and machines. With participatory and
often absurd narratives, Berkoy’s installations become stages for performance that
test the boundaries and etiquette of human-machine interaction as well as
human-human relationships. Berkoy holds an MFA in Electronic Arts from Rensselaer
Polytechnic Institute, an MA in Performance Studies from NYU’s Tisch School of the
Arts, and a BS in Theatre from Northwestern University. She is an Assistant
Professor of Emerging Media Technology at CUNY’s New York City College of Technology
and serves on the Board of Directors of the New Media Caucus.
