Yearning for Hypersea (2023)

technical demo




Traces of Memories (2022)

space of sections
    of colours and textures
where traces of memories
        ~cycle through
time
diluting, cleansing and
entering every possible vein that
    forbids remembering,
  while drifting stains
slowly forming
        the shades of us

Generative A/V piece

Ars Electronica ‘22




Dream of Silicone Skies (2022)

360° experience made in Unity




Data Afterlife (2022)

𝕯𝖆𝖙𝖆 𝕬𝖋𝖙𝖊𝖗𝖑𝖎𝖋𝖊 is a project that confronts the powers that control not only the data of those living, posting, streaming, and sharing on social media today, but also those users who have left behind their mortal bonds but whose profiles remain.

By relating the opaque tech corporations that have supremacy over our data to the centralized religious institutions who claim ownership over the souls of their followers, the project interrogates how these tech institutions have made data they control a sacred aspect of our social existence–and a divine reflection of the way we see ourselves.

John Kazior, Jolien Maaskant, Ellen Bjerborn, Ivona Petrov and Kuntay Seferoğlu for PSMC Residency
