James Bridle

James Bridle is an artist, writer and theorist based in Athens and London.
With a long-standing investigative interest in modern network infrastructure, government transparency, and technological surveillance, his artistic practice positions itself at the intersection of art, science, and political activism. In particular, he explores how the acceleration of technological advancement creates new ways to represent our physical world and affects our perception of the future by increasingly blurring the lines between the virtual and the real. His work incorporates software programming, social media, photography, installations, architectural rendering and maps.
Bridle’s New Aesthetic (2011) research project has spurred lively debate and continues to inspire critical and artistic response across many disciplines.
