I’ve been invited to speak at a conference at NYU Abu Dhabi in April 2024. ‘The Generative Archive: Research, Methods and Practices’ and has been convened by Salwa Mikdadi, Director, al Mawrid Arab Center for the Study of Art, NYUAD, along with colleagues at University of North Texas and University of California, Berkeley.
I’ll be using the Archive of Destruction to discuss communal memory, critical fabulation, the role of AI, building archives beyond institutions and alternatives ways of constructing narratives.
