One of the problems with crafting a dual use startup economy is that peace-time use of tech is likely less lucrative / good for extraordinary valuations than war-time uses of the tech. This jeopardises the possibility for peace and global stability.

Do put 50mins aside to listen to @VisualisingWar podcast interview with @berylpong (‘New Perspectives on WarTIME with Beryl Pong’). Drawing upon research into war temporalities the conversation weaves its way into the effects of drones in war, and peace. https://t.co/dIB5FBR2RV

[Visualising War and Peace @VisualisingWar]

We have a new podcast out this week! Tune in here to listen to a fascinating discussion with Beryl Pong on experiences of warTIME and chronophobia, and on the impact of drone technologies on our habits of visualising war and peace: https://t.co/7RciZuuK68

[Beryl Pong @berylpong]

I was recently on the @VisualisingWar podcast, where we talked about all things related to war & time, from WW1 to drone wars. Thank you, Alice, for such a thought-provoking discussion, especially in light of news about today's 'droneophobia'.

‘Magic Intelligence: Mapped’ 2025. My 3rd painting stimulated by Sam Altman’s comment, in a chat with Jony Ive 21/5/25, that ‘we now have magic intelligence in the cloud’. AI is not magic and ‘The Cloud’ is not vaporous. https://t.co/0UvjYtwoaW

Very happy to see my invited article for Nature is out in the new issue. I wrote about computer vision, the AI surveillance industrial complex, and brilliant new research that shows how deeply embedded the computer vision field is in the surveillance pipeline.

‘Blood Connection’ (2011). 14 years ago, the idea for this painting had been in my mind for some time. I wanted to create an image which brought the whole world together, an image that reminded us that we are connected across time and space. So, why war? https://t.co/MvzTCSnv2B
