Fernando Obieta (he/him, *1990) is a conceptual media artist and artistic researcher. After studying Computer Science with a focus on media technologies, he studied Interaction Design and Transdisciplinarity in the Arts at the Zurich University of the Arts. His artistic work and research focus on the critique and reflection of (digital) media, artefacts, systems, services, and solutions and how they are contingent and situated. He works at the intersection of concept, design, art, and technology, focussing on three methods: Finding errors or gaps in a system and making them specifically visible; shifting and reassembling certain parameters of a system; translating a system into other medialities. He is currently doing his PhD in media theory at the University of Arts Linz funded by the Swiss National Science Foundation’s (SNSF) Doc.CH program and is being hosted at the Lucerne School of Design, Film and Art. The dissertation “The Contingency of Design – a critique” is supervised by Prof. Dr. Gloria-Stella Meynen (Linz) and Prof. Dr. Rachel Mader (Lucerne). He is investigating how a feminist ethics and morality of machines and their production could be constituted. To this end, he is working on a series of posits under the title “machines congregating”, in which he examines how different machines perceive people and how people observe others (or themselves) through machines.
