Quantum Echoes of Humanity (2024)

Quantum Echoes of Humanity by Renzo Filinich builds on his extensive exploration of the intersection between art, technology, and ecology, continuing his focus on the role of computational processes in questioning dominant narratives. Historically, Filinich's work resonates with the tradition of Latin American media artists, such as Rafael Lozano-Hemmer and Giselle Beiguelman, who critique surveillance systems and examine postcolonial perspectives. This project extends his engagement with cosmotechnics by focusing on algorithmic reinterpretation of anthropological archives, aligning with global southern epistemologies. Drawing from collaborations with InterLab and cultural institutions like Brazil’s Museum of the Future and South Africa's Origins Centre, this work reflects a transdisciplinary effort to deconstruct colonial and extractivist logics in archives, proposing instead a fluid, relational, and non-representational engagement with human and non-human histories.<br>
