Quick update to keep some sort of record of what 2024 has brought me so far! In January I participated at MLA24, and delivered a couple of talks engaging my latest research. In my talk “Trees and Codes” (part of the panel “Anthropocene Cultural Production in Latin America and the Caribbean,” organized by Nicolás Campisi and Fernando Varela) I read some digital artwork by Eugenio Tisselli and Milton Läufer as two different attempts of challenging algorithmic abstraction. I also had the good fortune of speaking at the ALCESXXI round table “Imagining Alternative Futures,” organized by Isabel Alvarez-Sancho and Christine Martinez where, next to the brilliant Julia Chang, Mary Kate Donovan, Katryn Evinson and Carmen Sanchis-Sinisterra, I described some of my work that responds to the environmental impacts of digital technologies.
In February, I was invited to moderate a conversation between Mercedes Bunz and Joan Fontcuberta around the cultural revolutions of AI, as part of a series of conferences curated by Jorge Carrión, “The Other AI Revolutions,” and in conversation with the current exhibition on AI on display at the CCCB.
It was a great talk and you can watch it here!
