InstallationV.I.B.E - Viral Ideology Broadcast Experiment
By Elena Zaghis, Giulia Timis, August Kasa Sundgaard, Caitlin Van Bommel
Collaborators: Shao-Chun Hsu (fabrication), Claudio Castro Chaponan (coding)
Pictures: Shao-Chun Hsu
V.I.B.E explores the rise of “vibe culture” as a dominant mode of sense-making in the post-truth era, through a speculative electoral campaign and interactive installation. In a media landscape characterized by algorithmic bubbles and short-form video content, rational discourse is being threatened by ambiently spread propaganda—vibes. Critically engaging with the memetic strategies of contemporary far-right movements, the project investigates how hyper-online weaponized aesthetics normalize violence and advance authoritarianism through affectual manipulation.
InstallationPlayground — On teaching in the time of forced automation
By Alex Zakkas
Video, 14’
Educators in a Dutch university of applied sciences were told that AI is inevitable and given a training called “Playground” to get used to it. This video collects some of the corridor talks that thought otherwise. Quotes from a series of interviews are recomposed as one conversation between four voice actors. The images are taken from found videos of corporate team-building sessions.
From June 25th at 16:30 till June 26 at 20:30 (OT Cinema) 🕹️📺
///// Doom Scrolling Room /////
InstallationWeaving Through Screens
By Slutty Urbanism (Letizia Chiappini, Valeria Ferrari) and Laura Mrksa
Installation bed/fitness balls (woven by Laura)
Sound: Gropina – Zeno Poggioni
It is an immersive installation and live performance exploring the entanglement of rest, digital consumption, and algorithmic influence on contemporary attention. Weaving Through Screens explores such relationships, interrogating scrolling and weaving as ways to build interconnectedness, networks of care and collective responsibility. Doomscrolling is a form of productive unrest: it engages our attention and distracts us, collectively contributing to an idiotic machine learning process that feeds a chain of algorithms stored elsewhere, owned by someone else. Conversely, weaving can be seen as unproductive rest; as a manufacturing practice, it creates a tangible web that stems directly from our hands. Weaving is simultaneously producing and waiting; it is inefficient production, as it is slow, ancient and silent. While we are supposed to rest in our beds, our brains, fingers, and eyes are magnetised by devices designed for the incessant consumption and production of data. We consume content and time, rotting in bed, our brains in an endless succession of snapshots of pleasure, entangled in addictive screen behaviour. We invite the audience to collective doomscroll and enjoy the installation. The performance is meant to delve into concepts, scroll, reflect, and rest in a space of intimacy in which the imaginarium of a bed is mobilised against the productive unrest and constant production of data. The bed is the stage on which scrolling and weaving take place. The algorithm is whispering while the screens are revealing our deepest and secret desires and addictions…

Esoteric Media reading group (Online)
Monday, June 22
2:00 PM - 4:00 PM GMT+2
Esoteric Media invites Digital Occultism
​Organized by Sara Gelao, Jakko Kemper, and Amir Vudka (UvA).
The Esoteric Media reading group (ASCA, Amsterdam) invites researchers Sophie Publig and Mikkel Rørbo to discuss their latest publication: Digital Occultism (Aksioma, 2026).
​The book aims to explore the occult epistemologies of the digital present. Tracing the emergence of fictions from early internet cultures to contemporary platform environments, it examines how they produce material realities, how politics operate as psychological warfare, and how desires are engineered through algorithmic feedback.
