Refik Anadol (b. 1985) is a Turkish media artist and pioneer in the aesthetics of data and machine intelligence. He is the director of Refik Anadol Studio in Los Angeles and a lecturer at UCLA’s Department of Design Media Arts.
Taking data as primary material and the neural network of a computerized mind as a collaborator, Anadol and his team offer radical visualizations of our digitized memories and expand the possibilities of art and architecture.
The artist’s work has been exhibited at venues including the Museum of Modern Art, Centre Pompidou-Metz, National Gallery of Victoria, and the Venice Architecture Biennale.
