I am an artist/director working with digital image. My central tool is computer vision and I am curious how machines shape social relations. My artworks generate new narrative interaction between people, exploring the possibilities of human-machine-human collaboration. Scientific research on perception, vision and machine learning/artificial intelligence inspires me, as well as everyday observations of life in the contemporary age of technological supremacy.
