Artist Talk: Welcome to Jankspace, babesDaniel FelsteadContent producer

Jankspace is the leaking residual of the stack as it metabolises meatspace into hallucinogenic sludge. It’s the Uberdriver’s chaotically impressive multi-display setup of knotted cables, flashing screens and beeping notifications. It’s literally us and our gorgeously fucked-up, uncomputable bodies that we know aren’t quite programmed right and no amount of optimization is going to fix. In this artist talk Daniel will use the concept of jankspace to explore some of the central themes of his practice, namely, the aesthetic derangement of everyday digital culture, our unhinged mediated bodies, and the idiotic delusions of transhumanism.

Daniel FelsteadDaniel Felstead is an academic and content producer whose practice focuses on the relationship between the body, technology, and culture. e is the course leader of MA Fashion Media & Communication at the London College of Fashion (UAL).
