From EverybodyWiki Bios & Wiki

Copper Giloth is a new media artist and associate professor of art at the University of Massachusetts Amherst, where she teaches courses in Digital Media, Information Design, Mobile Apps and Drawing.[1][2] Giloth's works involve digital media, mobile art, virtual environments, animations, videos, painting, and installations, and has been influenced by elements of her life such as her parents.[3] She, along with Darcy Gerbarg, helped organize art exhibitions that showed alongside the SIGGRAPH conference, marking the exhibitions as the first to be shown at the conference.[1] In their book Creative Computer Graphics, Annabel Jankel, Rocky Morton, and Robert Leach described Giloth as "one of the leading exponents of computer art".[4]

Her work has been covered by outlets such as USA Today and the Chicago Tribune.[3] Giloth's work was displayed in a 1980 exhibition at the Museum of Contemporary Art, Chicago,[5] as well as in a 1982 exhibition 'Art and Technology: Chicago Video at MoMA' at the Museum of Modern Art.[6]
