In response to an era marked by crisis, this curatorial project serves as an artistic provocation, navigating you through speculative realities, rebellious technologies, and fluid identities shaped by the ideas and works of 31 artists.

AI for Ants: A zine about Small AI by AIxDESIGN & internet teapot

Collector #61

Bigger isn’t always better. What could we make with AI if scale wasn’t an objective? The 38-page zine “AI for Ants: A zine about Small AI” draws inspiration from the degrowth movement, climate justice, and low-tech to re-imagine AI that is locally-rooted and more attuned to our natural world.

Institute of Machine Unlearning Zine #2: Free Trade

Collector #24

Free Trade is the second zine from the Institute of Machine Unlearning. Created during a public collage session, it gathers fragments, fears, jokes, and quiet refusals to explore what AI feels like from the inside of everyday life, where attention becomes currency and imagination becomes resistance.
