I finally had the time to put into practice an idea I had over a year ago. ChatGPT but ELIZA.
The browser extension serves as a reminder that early dynamics and phenomenon of ELIZA are ever-present in today's interfaces. As we navigate sleek, well-designed surfaces, we are misguided by the interaction, confusing the underlying processes with intelligence instead of recognising them as statistical approximations of the hyper-average.
Does anyone have access to larger quantities of 3.9k Ohm resistors? We need around 200 for a sequencer soldering session at #39c3 and there was a mistake in the ordering process. Please help, every resistor counts! https://events.ccc.de/congress/2025/hub/de/event/detail/lote-deinen-eigenen-euclidean-sequencer (drop off at the proving ground assembly possible!) 👉🏼👈🏼🥺
During my research trip to Silicon Valley in March 2025, I noticed the bizarre AI/dev billboards on Highway 101. Intrigued by this phenomenon, I started photographing the billboards with my phone. Once back home, I couldn't stop thinking about them, so I decided to create an archive of the billboards using web scraping of Google Street View. (this also resulted in an artwork showing my daily route as an automated bot)
I later tried to make sense of this phenomenon in a text that I would still like to share here.

2025, Mixed-Media-Installation
I Apologize for the Confusion is an experimental setting that puts a large language model into a self-generating loop: it receives an empty prompt, generates a response, and then feeds its own output back as the next input.
Movement 504 is a performative installation which reassembles a three dimensional version of a digital user interface.
Archive 101 is a procedural browser-based drift along Highway 101 and archive that documents uncanny billboard advertisements specifically targeting software developers.
Arranging Data Into Lists is an exploration of video content with zero views—a statistical visual void in a system predicated on visibility.
