This week's conversation on the Substack is with Zach Nader. We discuss what it means to throw sand in the gears of image automation, how to locate the self in a hyperimaged world, and machines with no need for human input. @znader.bsky.social

I recently had the pleasure of working with Alex Estorick and Right Click Save to formalize my thoughts on a topic that's been weighing on me for the last couple of years: the function of the term "post-photography."

This week’s conversation on my Substack is with Sophie Kahn. We talk about what it looks like to build a practice around productive failure and why the best moments in a studio practice often happen before you know what you’re doing.

I'm thrilled to share that my first peer-reviewed academic paper has been published in the latest issue of photographies (Vol. 19, No. 1).
It is paywalled, but I have a couple of links if you want to read and the paywall is prohibitive.

This week’s conversation on my Substack is with Gregory Eddi Jones. We talk about creative hiatus, making art in a content-saturated world, and what it means to choose invisibility in an era that rewards constant output.

In this week's Substack, I reflect on what I've learned through the conversations I've had to date about the concerns and curiosities of artists engaging with technology. I discuss two recent @anthropic.com and Metalabel research studies.

I know, right? I never get tired of her work.

I'm approaching the final months of Psychic Telephone, the multiyear collaboration w. Marin Sardy. If you're interested in catching up, check out her Substack. Here are a few images I've made along the way. Lots of circles, holes, ellipses, and portals. marinsardy.substack.com
This week’s conversation on my Substack is with Evan Hume. We talk about his new book Critical Collection, bureaucratic secrecy, and what it means to teach photography at a moment when its truth claims are increasingly unstable.

First Substack of 2026 ✨ Carlo Van de Roer and I discuss managing uncertainty in photographic processes, the role of long-duration research in shaping one’s pursuits, and what it means to keep photographic thinking as an embodied practice.

FWIW, the jury is still out on Gen AI being good at text summaries. Because it shortens & emphasizes text based on distribution, not meaning, it’s less of a summary (ie, salient points highlighted) than a compression (ie, the most frequently asserted terms in the distribution). Not the same thing!
A modest EOY update/website revamp. Notably, my academic paper 'Time, Memory Retrieval, and Speculative Storytelling' will be published in the peer-reviewed journal photographies with Taylor & Francis (April, 2026) about my practice-led research. 🦾

This week’s Substack is with Liliana Farber. We discuss the illusion of objectivity in cartographic images, the real ecological and political costs of “immaterial” infrastructures like the cloud, and fictional servers on flagless boats. Enjoy.

This week’s conversation on my Substack is with Chaitanya Harshita Nedunuri Kahn. We discuss her curatorial ethos, empathy as an instrument of collective consciousness, and the political stakes of how we make, show, and think with art today.

This week’s interview on my Substack is with Dan Estabrook. We talk about nostalgia, the air gap between artist and audience, and his debut monograph Forever & Never.

I've posted another engaging conversation on my Substack. This time with Maria Mavropoulou, discussing what’s lost in the translation from the physical to the digital, novelty-seeking as a cultural phenomenon, and more.

Ooo!
I've posted another engaging conversation on my Substack. This time with @travisleroy.bsky.social about the invisible labor of image production, CERN, and the challenges of balancing a creative and commercial practice.

Lately, I’ve been thinking about what’s at stake for us creative folks when the ground beneath us feels uncertain.
Beginning next Wednesday, every other week, I’ll be sharing conversations with creative people about the idea of risk. Strap in!
From the opening of ‘Current States of Being: Exploring AI’s Influence on Memory, Identity, and Creativity,’ curated by Sarah Knobel. It was a pleasure to exhibit two bodies of work side-by-side, and to be in such good company alongside @cyberneticforests.bsky.social and Ameera Kawash.

This week I spoke at St Lawrence University with @danielleezzo.bsky.social and Ameera Kawash as part of the Brush Art Gallery show, “Current States of Being,” examining AI’s impact on memory, identity and creativity. artgallery.stlawu.edu/current-stat...
I'm honored to be a Lumen Prize finalist in the Still Image category for An Incantation in Twelve Prompts, a poem paired with camera-born images about falling out of love with photography.
Hats off to all the other artists this year!
I'm thrilled to finally share that Psychic Telephone is going to Indonesia for JIPFest this September. The 22 artist lineup includes two of my favorite working photographers right now, Mackenzie Calle and Nikita Teryoshin, among others.
