Heat work
Artificial Intelligence (AI) has the potential to both disrupt and transform the performing arts. However, the use of Machine Learning (ML) algorithms in choreography risks leading to a reductive and opaque formalization of choreographic decisions, often disregarding energy consumption and environmental impact. This article explores choreography as a method for examining the energetic materialities of ML and extractivism. Through Heat Work, a per…
Memory Machines
Through the Memory Machines performance tour conducted in a public library, the authors analyze multisensory methods including immersive performance and walking tours as probes into cultural infrastructures. Combining discussions of media theory and artistic practice, including collaboration with the 00100 Ensemble, the authors present infrastructural performance as an art method for creative infrastructural research
Breaking the Circuit
Uncovering and exhibiting digital media’s entanglements with energy, behavior and environment through artistic practice has been a decade-long quest for the author. Through three art projects the author describes his experiments with the energy consumption of media, lithium battery recycling, the Cloud and network connectivity. Arguing for critical artistic approaches, the author examines concerns of ecology and behavior as investigated by instal…
