John Zerzan: Beyond the Symbolic (2024)
digital video, MiniDV, 8mm film / 8'47"

John Zerzan is the foremost thinker of anarcho-primitivism, an anarchist critique that rejects technological progress and advocates the abolishment of civilisation. Yet, despite his convictions, Zerzan lives a seemingly ordinary suburban life in Eugene, Oregon. We follow Zerzan around his house on his quest to escape from high-tech culture and experience life in the spirit of hunter-gatherer existence. While Zerzan struggles with various domestic technologies and his attachment to civilisation, the documentary medium accompanies him on his search while gradually regressing to earlier technological eras.

Destructive Circuits is an artistic research project into the design and construction of Improvised Explosive Devices (IEDs) with reappropriated and hacked everyday digital technologies. It was developed as part of my Fellowship at V2_Lab for the Unstable Media in Rotterdam.

The project combines archival investigation, critical inquiry and practice-based artistic exploration to gain new perspectives on the ways the development of IEDs is intertwined with globalized techno-consumerism and media politics.

The publication Destructive Circuits: A Machine Archaeology of Improvised Explosive Devices (2024) includes essays, photos, a conversation between curator Florian Weigl and myself, and work descriptions. It can be downloaded here for free (but printed copies are available as well): https://v2.nl/publications/destructive-circuits

"Anarchist Technologies and Stateless Sovereignty: Tactical Art for the Rojava Revolution"

A talk I gave at St. Anthony's College at the University of Oxford a few years ago.

Since then, the revolution has been under increasing pressure in Rojava/North-East Syria, but the work continues - if it doesn't succeed now, it will tomorrow - if it doesn't succeed here, it will nextdoor

My 50 cents - in German - on the boringness and limited relevance of AI-art and the hype surrounding it (well, actually, they asked for it... otherwise I wouldn't have spoken about it in public)

"Einführung in die neuere Geschichte des Deepfakeismus in der Kunst"
Art-tech talk @ WaveLab München, 29.1.2026

Die Benutzung von Medientechnologien, um Repräsentationen von Personen und Gegebenheiten zu manipulieren, ist nichts Neues. Bereits wenige Jahrzehnte nach der Erfindung der Fotografie wurden die ersten Fake-News-Bilder von prominenten Personen hergestellt. Entwicklungen im Bereich des Machine Learning (bzw. Deep Learning) haben die Möglichkeiten der Bildmanipulation in den vergangenen Jahren jedoch exponentiell zugänglicher und fortgeschrittener gemacht.

Inwieweit dies zu einer wesentlichen Veränderung im gesellschaftlichen Umgang mit mediatisierten Realitätsdarstellungen führen wird, hängt jedoch auch von der parallelen Entwicklung neuer Medienkompetenzen ab, die das Erkennen manipulierten Bildmaterials ermöglichen – ein Aspekt, der in vielen moralisch-panikgetriebenen Medienberichten eher geringe Beachtung findet.

Anhand historischer und zeitgenössischer künstlerischer Arbeiten, in denen Realitätsdarstellung und Bildmanipulationstechniken im Zentrum stehen, wird reflektiert, inwiefern aktuelle Deepfake-Praktiken eine Herausforderung für die Realitätswahrnehmung im Alltag darstellen könnten.
