A large green screen fills the background. The presenter on the left wears black clothing and white sneakers, while the presenter on the right wears a plaid shirt, dark trousers, gray sneakers, and a patterned cap.

A large white projection structure displays a computer desktop and a web browser showing a grid of colorful images. In the background, a presenter sits at a table with a laptop and microphone in front of a large green screen. A bottle and other equipment are on the table.

A presentation is taking place in a gallery space.

follow the link – Gallery Surfing Session with Sofi Xian & @evanroth.bsky.social 📍 panke.gallery, Tuesday, 15 September 2026 from 7 to 10 PM panke.gallery/event/follow... See you there! [pics] 🖼️ Images from artworks by Xian and Roth.

A large gallery installation covers the walls and floor with thousands of small, colorful photographic and printed images arranged in dense grids and collages. A woman in a long black dress stands near the center, facing the wall and viewing the work.

A dark exhibition space contains a large installation of multiple vertical screens arranged in a loose, symmetrical composition. The screens display pink and red-tinted images of trees and landscapes, while cables hang from the screens to electronic equipment on the floor.

Three small humanoid robots are positioned on a rocky overlook above a turquoise lake surrounded by dense green forest and mountains. One silver robot sits in the foreground, another blue robot sits farther back on the left, and a white robot stands on the right.

An art installation resembling a bouquet of white and pale pink tulips stands in a transparent container. Green stems and leaves are interwoven with visible wires and electronic components, while a small transparent electronic control device rests on the white surface beside it.

last year i was at a `solarpunk' talk at a design conference and the speaker said `we need to choose which future to envision!! solarpunk or cyberpunk' and i pointed out that globally there are already both solarpunk- and cyberpunk-coded places, which he was no prepared to confront

"Windows 10 was not about eco-futurist dreams but about augmented reality. Rather, the colors all strike me as coming from fashion or from interior design..." Really interesting piece on a now-dead operating system's look and feel, by @sofixian.bsky.social networkcultures.org/longform/202...
