Stanza
The Nemesis Machine : Entangled Cities., 2025
Artwork about the future of cities using real time data relating to the public in the city, and how we are entangled and interwoven in the public domain. Numerous artworks are fused together to create a conversation about how we have become complicit using the technologies we develop and thus how they affect our culture, society and politics.
These artworks use my own artificial intelligence machine learning systems running over various data sets (depending on the artwork) this creates a very topical and timely proposition as we think about how society is affected by AI and how it will affect the governance of the landscape in the future. These artworks sit in the middle of current discourse around how these technologies oscillate between utopian and dystopian visions of our global future.
The artworks act as a frame for the different expressions of data which in effect make up a connected city and resonate in between utopian and dystopian dialogues. Furthermore the artwork demonstrates how we are complicit and thus entangled in the surveyed and monitored technological layers that the artworks are communicating and fit seamlessly into what Stanza calls panoptic aesthetics.
These installations are continuously transforming by analysing thousands of city-wide data inputs to make predictive outputs…an oracular vision of the near future
