Join us in conversation with Martin Zeilinger, author of Tactical Entanglements (Meson Press, 2021) and Creative AI Lab investigators Mercedes Bunz (King’s College London), Eva Jäger (Serpentine) and Daniel Chávez Heras (King’s College London). We will be streaming live via Serpentine’s Twitch (@serpentineuk) Monday 15 November at 6PM.

In his new book, Martin Zeilinger offers a wide-ranging discussion of contemporary digital art practices, philosophical and technical considerations of AI, posthumanist thought and emerging issues of intellectual property and the commons. It proposes instead the concept of the posthumanist agential assemblage, where authorship by humans and non-humans becomes intertwined, indistinguishable and irrelevant. The book invites readers to consider what new types of creative practice, what reconfigurations of the author function, and what critical interventions become possible when AI art provokes tactical entanglements between aesthetics, law, and capital.
