Very grateful to everyone who came, and supported last night’s debut of ‘entropic.contagion’, my first solo work in over eight years! A special thanks to NXT Museum & Prosus for inviting me to participate in this residency, Robert M. Thomas for composing an amazing soundtrack.

tonight: the early-onset heat death of culture?

A little teaser from the making of my new solo work, ‘entropic.contagion’, debuting at NXT Museum in Amsterdam on Friday as part of their AI residency program. Sound by the amazing composer Robert M. Thomas

body horror for jpgs (or, how I learned to love memetic mutations)

Today's fascinating word: 'echoborg'. src: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Echoborg

The quiet satisfaction of a working prototype still actually executing and running (without crashing) many months later.

Having just read 'The Peripheral' and the Jackpot therein, this is especially chilling: www.theguardian.com/environment/...

Have reached the «everything needs organising in spreadsheets» point of the year. Now waiting patiently for the inevitable urge to write my own small software for handling this to pass..

Was reminded today of my first, quite nervewracking, experience with programming robotic arms (that took place a good few years ago now, mind you) (www.youtube.com/watch?v=AJtI...)

‘decohering delineation’ on display as part of this years Expo Sunderland Arts Programme, curated by Debra Stewardson.

as a (mostly) visual artist I'm finding it quite funny that several months of labour is crystallising in the form of (finally) stable json outputs..

Excited to share documentation from the installation of 'self-contained 009.x' as part of the ‘Ai or NAY? Artificial vs. Intelligent' exhibition at the Media Majlis in Qatar, curated by Jack Thomas Taylor, and on display from January 15th until the 15th of May, 2025.

Finally our copy of Neo Botanica by VetroEditions arrived! In it, along side so many amazing works, a series of botanical meditations we made for the @palaumusicacat.bsky.social in Barcelona

‘chimerical stories’ (2021)

'decohering delineation’ (excerpt of 2024 triptych variant)

Still can’t shake the notion that what we call foundational or large “AI” models mostly act in practice as entropy accelerators..

latest OS upgrade for the mac does result in Siri (via chatgpt) finally being able to perform the killer use-case for any LLM: generating complex ffmpeg commands

The more I work natively digitally, the more I've grown to understand that it is site-specific work, rather than global (this has been further underlined with @entangledothers.bsky.social where our shared practice naturally focuses on digital-physical hybrids as site-specific explorations)

‘specious upwellings #3.rgb’ (details)

My basic hypothesis these days is we are incredibly poorly suited to comprehend the (less intuitive) nature of how things scale.

Happy to be able to share photos of Sediment Nodes at the exhibition ‘Speculative Evolution’ curated by Toke Lykkeberg Nielsen on display at Tranen (DK), photos by David Stjernholm

At this point I've entirely lost track of who I'm following where and should be following elsewhere.

Nothing like a failing SSD to spice up a morning.

diving in old hard-drives: back in 2014 I assembled a CNC machine and promptly used it to plot a series of drawings for a semester assignment (note the very improvised pen-holder ...)

Does anyone else's practice also feeling like wrestling a Lernaean Hydra? For each work completed, three new ideas seem to take its place, at this rate it's 50/50 that either my note-taking system, or I, will collapse.

Meanwhile in Sicily, our so-far unreleased series ‘an upwelling’ is currently on display at the Gibellina Photoroad festival until the 30th of September, curated by Arianna Catania 🪸

1/8 A short 🧵 about 'Decohering Delineation', a work very dear to us, and one that was initiated over two years ago (but that took a longer period of time to develop and explore) 🐙🪼🐠
