Closed Loop / Scrying Mirror
with Felix Ansmann

2022

2-channel video installation
Closed Loop / Scrying Mirror explores themes of algorithmic and divinatory prediction, simulation, and magical conceptions of technology. Gesturing towards colonial, market-driven, and technocratic notions of prediction, it references the scrying mirror, a divination artifact originating in pre-columbian Mesoamerica, later adopted by European astrologers like John Dee, and the practice of augury, where the augur divines the future by observing patterns in (in this case simulated) bird behavior.

Closed Loop / Scrying Mirrory was first shown at Ars Electronica Festival 2022, Linz, Austria
