ABSTRACT
This chapter highlights research on the conversations, traces the investigation of several art educators, and explores contemporary art and artists as participants, whose art practices artworks relate to creating insight into the use of digital interfaces for engaging with complexity of abilities. The artist Millett-Gallant, in her book The Disabled Body in Contemporary Art, produced further questions by exploring art “from the perspective of disability” and disability “through contemporary art”. The chapter argues that artists and art educators can provide a creative, constructive context to explore possible responses that include agency, collectivity, and function over form with regard to technology and disabilities, thus circumventing forces that continually attempt to colonize imaginations. Human actions, communication, and symbols constitute one part of social practices, objects, and systems, while technologies establish another part of social practices, material culture, and arrangements. In art education and art practices, different ways of being in the world explore being in itself as having infinite possibilities.
