Wonderful. Thank you for the recommendation.

When the ambassador, a 40-year career diplomat, departed soon after, it was reported as a planned retirement.

She was quite likely referring to an incident in which something she called “satanic baby art” was removed from the U.S. ambassador’s residence in Bucharest, Romania. (The artwork included a collaged image of babies and a human skull, referring to Christian iconography and Mexican tradition.)

“I’m a little bit of an undercover person in the State Department,” Ms. Scavino said on a podcast with Katie Miller, the wife of Stephen Miller, the president’s top homeland security adviser. She added that she can “get people out through art, shockingly.”

At the beginning of 2025, Ms. Scavino became the director of the Art in Embassies program, which manages permanent art collections in diplomatic spaces across 189 countries.

Good morning, Dublin. Full Irish breakfast to start the weekend right.

This week in Dublin, the Tsundoku Art Book Fair opens at the International Centre for the Image, with three days of books, exhibitions, screenings, and conversations moving through the space.

‘The Archive Dreams Us: Where Light Remembers Wrongly, Seventeen Haiku’ will be there.

I’ve been thinking about archives as something active rather than fixed.

Not a place where the past is stored, but where it is filtered, ranked, and reshaped. What we remember often arrives already edited.

‘The Archive Dreams Us’ moves through that idea in fragments.

#BookSky

This book moves in 3 parts: dataset, prompt, & memory.

Each section follows how information becomes narrative, how something recorded begins to shift as it is stored, retrieved, & seen again.

I’m excited to participate in the Tsundoku Art Book Fair at the International Centre for the Image in Dublin next month.

The fair runs across three days, with books, exhibitions, screenings, workshops, and conversations unfolding at once.

Last Days.

Last chance to experience The Wrong Returns.

Some use it for a scene or single artworks, others for the whole video, a musician enhances her music, some write their texts with it. All share their work process in the artist online pavilion space which is creating an illuminating read next to viewing the video.

It is a video edition, a tour de force presenting a variety of artistic short videos with focus on artist collaborations with AI at the core of their creations.

This project imagines a second life for these discarded by-products, transforming digital waste into raw material for collective creativity.

BIG EARS // 3.26 - 3.29.26 // KNOXVILLE, TN · USA Big Ears collaborates with artists, audiences, and communities to create joyful, meaningful, and transcendent cultural experiences.

Knoxville, Tennessee | March 24-30, 2026

Big Ears bigearsfestival.org (The festival is now sold out.)

Visuals for the Across the Horizon series is curated by Brett Phares / aweStruct awestruct.com/bigears2026/.

(Picture from the 2025 performance.)

Artists presented with aweStruct: Luzena Adams, Tatsu Arai, Joshua Davis, Emilia Forstreuter, Louise Harvey, Xiaowen Huang, Joelle McTigue, David Montgomery, Nowhere Mountain, Matt Pearson, Brett Phares, Susi Sie, Joon Sung, Hunter Scully, thisisnotdesign, Meara Withe, and wirmachenbunt.

This year, my Olympic Dahlia videos are part of Brett Phares’ 360° projections with aweStruct, where image and sound expand together into the same space at The Greyhound and their music lineup and at The Point as part of the Across the Horizon series.

Art continues to find its way to unexpected places, an abandoned Greyhound bus depot and a bold church with a beautiful set of organ pipes, each transformed into a living canvas once dusk hits, and the music festival kicks into gear.

For four days, Knoxville opens across more than twenty-five venues, with over 250 concerts, films, talks, and installations unfolding at once. You move through it by listening. There isn’t a single center during the Big Ears Festival.

Thanks! That was a particularly fun week to shoot. The streets were so busy, so many little stories.

Today in Münster.
