On 30 September, I will be giving a keynote at NYU Shanghai’s Interactive Media Arts department. On Memory Architectures, Reverse Archeologies & Cognitive Infrastructures brings together several strands of my ongoing research around artificial memory, automation, synthetic knowledge, and emerging cognitive infrastructures.
“One & Infinite Chairs” is part of “Do Our Chimeras Most Resemble Us?”, an online group exhibition presented by Centre Pompidou in collaboration with KADIST, running from 14 September to 13 December 2026. The project is the third chapter of the ongoing curatorial collaboration between Centre Pompidou and KADIST, following the 2023 symposium “The Future Is No Longer What It Used to Be” and the exhibition “Apophenias, Interruptions: Artists and Artificial Intelligences at Work”. “Do Our Chimeras Most Resemble Us?” is curated by Marcella Lista, Chief Curator of the New Media Collections at the Musée National d’Art Moderne – Centre Pompidou, and Joseph del Pesco, Curator at KADIST.

From 22 June to 10 July 2026, Intertopian Imaginaries was presented at the China Academy of Arts in Hangzhou as part of PLAYSHOP: Trans-boundary Curriculum in Design. Through a series of lectures and workshops, the programme explored speculative design, artificial intelligence, media archaeology, and critical world-building, examining how emerging technologies shape cultural imaginaries and alternative futures.
At our recent ‘Reclaiming Data’ symposium in Berlin, a key takeaway for me and many others was the reaffirmation of W. Benjamin’s quote, ‘Behind every fascism, there is a failed revolution.’ However, this assertion led to subsequent misinterpretations about which revolution was implied. To me, personally, it is beyond the shadow of a doubt an industrial revolution, where we failed big time.
Reverse Archaeology was a solo exhibition presented at the IPAI Living Room in Heilbronn, Germany, from 7 May to 4 September 2026, organized by the IPAI Foundation. The exhibition featured works from the Content Aware Studies series, examining how artificial intelligence reshapes the reconstruction, preservation, and interpretation of cultural heritage while questioning the role of machine-generated knowledge in the production of historical narratives.
One & Infinite Chairs (2024) was screened at the 72nd International Short Film Festival Oberhausen on 1 May 2026 as part of the programme Forensics of the Unreal. The film examines the transformation of representation through machine learning, revisiting Joseph Kosuth’s One and Three Chairs to explore how AI-generated images reshape perception, meaning, and the production of visual knowledge.
On 23 April 2026, the lecture Knowlegistics / Cognitectures was presented at Duke Kunshan University in Kunshan, China. The talk explored the relationship between knowledge systems and computational architectures, examining how artificial intelligence and digital infrastructures reshape cognition, cultural memory, and the production of knowledge through the intersection of media theory, critical design, and artistic research.
