Operator

Repeat as necessary's Performance Operating System is an open on-chain architecture for regenerating live performance, without the artists, institutions, or permission. Where documentation preserves past performances, this is an engine for future ones. The system is the work.

Aiwen Ding and Zhi Geng

Throat of the Wind' is a site-specific sound installation based on long-term field research. It converges the energies of history, wind, and electromagnetism into a discarded turbine blade, transforming it into an earth instrument—a 'throat' for the land's memory.

Alida Sun

RITES reclaims women’s erased computational heritage through code, ritual, embroidery, and care. Integrating custom software, light, sound, and traditional mirror work, each tapestry is an abstract human–machine portrait and encrypted sigil re-imagining technology as resistance.

Chloé Lee

Mixed-reality installation that reactivates a 2015 archive of Singaporean voices as a walkable film. Switching physical slides on a retro projector shifts holographic neighborhoods while AI renders future landscapes — granting viewers the narrative agency urban renewal denies.

Constance Lu and Tianying Lei

A web-based continuation infrastructure responding to visa-forced displacement. Three temporal layers — real journals, GPU-reconstructed objects, and AI-generated diary entries dated to the current day — examine how generative systems construct futures on behalf of the absent.

Kordae Jatafa Henry

IF NOT NOW is a speculative short set on the brink of extinction, where a father and son use ancestral technology to transcend space and time. Blending ritual, science fiction, and ecology, the film explores memory, survival, and rebirth.

Mimi Ọnụọha

Ground Truths follows Mimi Ọnụọha after 95 bodies are discovered in her Texas hometown. Shaken, she builds a machine learning model to predict where other such graves lie and discovers what happens when the tools we build to find truth rely on systems designed on forgetting.

OONA

Dear David is a performance and video series built from my own London Underground CCTV footage and institutional correspondence. Framed as surveillance love letters, it turns surveillance, bureaucracy, and anonymity into a meditation on intimacy, visibility, and connection.

Robin Kane

Through ritual, stillness, and motion, the series traces the Circassian exile across past, present, and future. Bodies and landscapes become carriers of inherited memory - holding grief, survival, displacement, and the persistence of a scattered nation.

Ryuta Aoki

Quantum noise becomes rain in a universe inspired by vernacular cultures of computation. Rods trace the 28 Lunar Mansions; tatami and reeds ground sky, earth and human. Embodied ritual gestures attune the installation. Every 28 minutes, a sonic ecology is reborn.

Sasha Stiles

An immersive generative language environment that advances poetry as a defining medium of the 21st century, and explores “poetic intelligence” (the intertwining of emotion and algorithm to make meaning) as a model for how technology can deepen, rather than diminish, our humanity.
