A few stills from my public lecture at the Chinese academy of Art @chinaacademyofart in Hangzhou, where I had a great pleasure and very interesting three weeks teaching a course titled ‘Latent Spaces & Permission-less Dreams’ this July.
Witnessing the invasion in 2022 left me shattered — a horror that continues to unfold with devastating consequences. I'm grateful Content Aware Studies received the NTAA Jury Award that year, offering a small but meaningful response through art.
Over the past year—and most recently—I had the privilege of teaching my course Art and Image in the Contexts of AIs at Linz University of Arts (Visual Communication Department).

A wonderful outdoor exhibition, Everything Will Be Fine, curated by the brilliant Tactical Tech, opened last week in front of Berlin’s Deutsches Technikmuseum as part of Berlin Art Week. The exhibition is accompanied by a screening programme hosted by Haus der Statistik (HAU).
Save the date: EVERYTHING WILL BE FINE, an outdoor exhibition by Tactical Tech, opens on 14 September at 7:00 PM outside the German Museum of Technology in Berlin. Co-produced by HAU Hebbel am Ufer, this large-scale public show investigates how technology influences the way people are informed, how they make decisions, and how they respond to contemporary global crises—from climate change and pandemics to political polarisation.
Decentralised Embargo (2022) is a provocative installation involving an electricity contract with EnBW (a known client of Gazprom Germania), a rack-mounted open-frame server with four Nvidia 3090 GPUs, a custom water-cooling loop, and Ethereum blockchain mining software.
