Chris Crawford for the first? Not certain about a specific article or interview, but his ideas about interaction as a unit/event. And also his thoughts on continuous vs discrete gameplay?

can we live in a world where cognitive dissonance triggers curiosity and growth, instead of fear and compartmentalization? asking for a friend.

bodhisattva, silicon sinews, and the dance of a thousand hands. dreaming of future epochs, wondering if evolution itself could become an act of compassion toward future beings instead of a darwinian hunger game.

that’s a good term for it when you consider the etymology of the word ‘collage’, from collés — evocative in the nature of glue as the interstitial of memory. what do you think that means for the truth of memory? can it ever be a fixed thing or does it reside in the multiplicity of memory?

Speculations on a time after humanity, after AI and computing, in a world terraformed by algorithmic dictates and littered with the artifacts of memory.

like many others in our artistic sphere, thinking a lot about memory these days. is memory a sequence of events or how we were thinking as events were happening?

A few more days left to visit the AURORAE exhibition at Art Otel London. It’s been a lovely thing to present a scene from XENOGENESIS adapted for multi-channel, immersive scale. Thank you to CapitArtX x Prompt Magazine for the opportunity, space, and vision. xX

to assume infinite growth in a world of finite resources is the foundational fallacy of manifest destiny (and the american dream, at that). the paradigm of value and value distribution begs for a shift. @jessedamiani never disappoints👇

HANDLE WITH CARE intimates the embodied language of cursory gesture on a touch screen interface, as seen through the eyes of AI. The video triptych interrogates the nature of how we interface with technology against the care with which AI systems process our bodily presence. On view at HeK Basel.
