I want a president

Arquivista AI is a research platform that creatively explores the relationships between gaps in historical knowledge and artificial intelligence. Through archival research, historical gaps are identified and filled in with alternative histories, deliriums and glitches generated with AI. For Ars Electronica, Nestor Pestana is working with the Archives of the City of Linz to identify a historical gap. Alternative histories will be presented as texts, sculptural artifacts and a projection.
