Introducing The Hybrid Award This week, we’re spotlighting an exciting new addition to the 2025 Lumen Prize: The Hybrid Award. This category honours works that seamlessly merge the physical and digital realms. From collaborative robotics and human performance to biotechnology that resurrects extinct scents, and AI-driven immersive constellations where each participant becomes a star—these groundbreaking works exist at the intersection where the digital and physical collide. The artists featured in this video exemplify why this award was created: to celebrate innovation at the forefront of artistic evolution.

Nice interview about my upcoming book on #AIethics , cheers! tudelft.nl/en/2024/tbm/digit…

A few months ago I made the bold choice of leaving TU Delft and coming back to where my academic career started, at Politecnico di Torino. Today it's finally official. So, if you fancy visiting and collaborating with a vibrant academic community in Italy, come visit me in Torino!

Wow... what a run. I’m very proud of this one :) We got our drag community, radially queer bodies and punk deepfakes into one of the most institutionalist of art and design institutions. Apparently our hopeful queer techno utopia made children and adults dance, laugh & cry.
