Internationally renowned Lebanese artist Rabih Mroue presents "The Pixelated Revolution," a lecture-performance that he calls "anti-academic." The edgy artist's work is a commentary on eyewitness records of the deaths of unarmed civilians in Homs, Syria and the subsequent postings of these deaths as videos and images online.
