..Inspired by xenobots– constructed of frog cells, computational organisms. Machines made of silicon with proto-cognitive capabilities. How might these nano-organisms “think” differently — think alongside our own wetware, differently? And…

..People sometimes ask me how drawing with D.O.U.G. has changed my process. Here’s and image of me preparing some installation drawings (#chiaro_oscuro) from a decade ago. Breaking out from software…

Intertwining my meditation and art practice. They’re both simple interventions that shape my days — alternating between varying states of flow, alternatives to the addiction to control, reliance on certainty

I used to draw differently.My approach to drawing and machine learning, data, and robotics started as a way to evolve my drawing ability by designing artificial intelligence systems, to explore…

Missing this peaceful moment from my last performance. I like that the image captures the inherent stillness of the process of drawing. Despite uncertainty, the lines are grounding..I’m slowly working…
