The Algorithmic Art Assembly conference/festival is back, with quite the lineup. Additional details at aaassembly.org. It runs March 10, 11, and 12, 2022, at Gray Area in San Francisco (grayarea.org).
I’m looking forward to being part of it, doing a live interview with Mark Fell, Rian Treanor, and James Bradbury on the second day. I gave a talk about the Disquiet Junto at the first Algorithmic Art Assembly, back in 2019. The organizer, Thorsten Sideb0ard, puts his all into this.
