Nimiia Cétiï

Inspired by experiments in interspecies communication and aspiring to connect with a world beyond our consciousness, nimiia cétiï documents the interactions between a neural network, audio recordings of early Martian language, and footage of the movements of extremophilic bacteria. Here, the computer is a medium, channeling messages from entities that usually cannot speak. However, it is also an alien of our creation. A collaboration with the artist Jenna Sutela as part of her n-dimensions artist-in-residency at Somerset House Studios on which I acted as mentor, with Damien Henry from Google Arts & Culture.
