The marvelous exhibition "Deep Fields" at the Centre Wallonie-Bruxelles in Paris is still up for two weeks, including my installation #71.1 from 2019.
Curated by Félicie d’Estienne d’Orves and Olivier Schefer, in synergy with Stéphanie Pécourt.
During the time of the exhibition my book "Liberate the Machines !" is also for sale at the CWB.

Nice surprise that the most recent analog computing application note by the esteemed Bernd Ulmann features the chaotic system that I used to generate the images of my film #59...

copublished with KASK&Conservatorium Ghent, designed by Isabelle Vigier, final editing by Bureau Doove.
So today most of the "Liberate the Machines!" book was finally printed and thanks to Isabelle Vigier it looks fantastic ! Just after the summer it should be available through regular channels and a proper launch will follow.

That was a very nice evening in the Kunsthal in Ghent yesterday; an interesting discussion in front of a good audience, between Catherine Willems, Bert de Roo, Giliam Ganzevles and myself around three recently completed bookprojects, expertly moderated by Edith Doove. (there will be a proper launch of my book once it is actually printed and available, after the summer)

And another fine interspecies project comes to its conclusion.
We're finally getting somewhere with the book and I'm very happy with the result !

I am learning many things from giving my "Liberate the Machines !" talk in different places in the US. Today in College Station, TX, one of the attendants was wearing a military uniform.

A view of the studio in October 2020 that didn't make it into the book, this was during the making of my film "Mechanisms Common to Disparate Phenomena; #59".

Tracing more previous owners of equipment in my studio for the "Liberate the Machines!" book. This Tektronix FG501 function generator from the early 1970s came from Intermedics, a pacemaker manufacturer. Finally something not related to the military.

From the "Liberate the Machines !" book: an adder module from one of the first commercial analog computing systems, manufactured by George Philbrick Researches in the early 1950's. From my own collection, picture by Isabelle Vigier.

Selecting images for the 'Liberate the Machines !' book: this is from August 2017 when I first encountered chaos in an analog computing patch. I was trying to reproduce the system that Yoshisuke Ueda used in 1961.
