This marks the fourth year I’ve been interviewing art(ists) for the Soap Factory and Northern Lights’ collaboration Art(ists) on the Verge. The ongoing fellowship has brought to light many fascinating and intriguing tech-savvy artists and works and this year is no exception.

"Art doesn't just represent a system of power and the possibilities within it. It creates a system of its own while simultaneously suggesting other possibilities beyond it. To make art in that way now is to occupy a position in proximity to corporations, branding strategies and other systems of distributed power without becoming an imitator or a speculator."
