“As tech increases around us, I take greater joy in the non-tech moments: human intimacy, time in nature, the creative process, quiet, doing things by hand. These are needs we evolved with. Now, when I am out in nature, I am thinking about early humans out in nature. I feel wary of the idea of AI permeating and disrupting this human-nature intimacy which connects us back to humans hundreds of thousands of years ago. This was on my mind in my Machine Seeing Nature series. I tried to think about simulating the internal perceptions of AIs as they viewed nature, while putting AI’s visual grammar back in its natural home.”

I had the honor to speak about my scientific research and art practice at The Internet Archive, through their The Intersection of Art and Technology (TIAT) salon series. Thank you to the 600+ people who came out to learn about creative uses of technology… you can see my talk and the rest of the line up here.

I had the honor to speak about my work and participate in a panel discussion at The Commonwealth Club World Affairs in San Francisco, the nation's oldest and largest public affairs forum. I’ve been listening to their talks for years, so it was a thrill to be in the stage! The theme of the night was AI, Art and New Technology: Threat or Opportunity.

I recently participated in “Curating AI”, an experimental group show at 120710 Gallery in Berkeley which explored the various ways AI is used and explored in material artworks.

I opened my Berkeley studio for what turned out to be nearly 8 hours! It was a very memorable day for me because I absolutely loved sharing my art in person with so many friends, old and new. Thank you to those who could make it, and if you missed it I hope we can connect in the near year.

I’m honored that my AI-inspired painting Frequency Shift has been included in the Mirror Material group show at San Francisco’s Southern Exposure Gallery, curated by celebrated artist-run collective Tiger Strikes Asteroid. Oct 22 - Nov 19, 2022.

REWORK_: Philip Glass Remixed is an interactive musical artwork which has been included in the Sound and Space group show at the Museum of Modern Art (NY), and is up Oct 3–Nov 24, 2013.
