Since the first domestication of the dog around 19,700 to 26,000 years ago, humans have bred a wide variety of dog breeds, all of which have distinctive character traits, abilities and specializations. The common origin of all breeds is the wolf.

The installation Similar Processes reflects on the constitution of algorithmic procedures as they assemble in computational models. The experimental setup of the simulated worlds exposes the controls of their own design, collapsing into stable configurations at one moment while chaotically oscillating in another.

Complex systems produce the belief in a world which is so complex and volatile that change can only be managed by markets and machines. What remains of human agency is to adapt to the perpetual disruptions heading our way, taking place through demos and training.

By using an aesthetic-oriented approach we are studying the methods and processes involved in creating images that give us a sense of reality. From scientific images to news and computer simulations, the aesthetic code used to represent certain events is fundamental in conveying a sense of reliability and reality to the viewer.

Based on a prediction that 90% of online content will be synthetically generated by 2025, the project envisions a near future where digital influencers infiltrate both private and social spheres, even to the extent of appropriating users’ identities.

The Digital Mirror is an interactive art installation that plays with the concepts of curiosity, narcissism and surveillance to delve into the relationship between digital identity and personal agency within virtual spaces.

COMMON GROUND rethinks space and ownership in Berlin, renegotiating collective decision-making in the face of crises. In an expropriated Berlin, where the conditions of use are decoupled from ownership—and thus from capital, power, and discriminatory exclusion—there is the chance to resiliently face and overcome crises equitably.

Arab Futurism explores a question and movement that aims to contribute to more counterculture in thought and action. Rooted in current political discourse, it summons non-parallel universes where new value systems can be decoded and past-present-future narratives interrogated.

In a technology-driven world, spirituality is redefined by social media and mobile apps. With the rise of astrology apps and spiritual content, AI Fortune Teller seeks to modernize traditional fortune-telling using AI and digital media, exploring human-machine interaction, spirituality, and algorithmic mysticism.

ACV (Algorithmic Cultural Vandalism) is an interactive installation work, in which symbolic language, in its most diagrammatic aspects, is used as a tool for constructing an algorithm. The aim is to reflect on the relationships between magic and technique, human and non-human, and to explore the mental cartography that expresses the differences between sign and…
