In this episode Jared talks with Lawrence Lek. Working across video, music and VR, Lawrence's interrelated projects build speculative fictions addressing questions around AI, authenticity, and geopolitics, as imagined through the future of cities like London and Singapore.
In a 2017 interview on AQNB, Lawrence spoke about how when confronted by empty cities or ruins it can lead to epiphanies about ourselves. This awareness of a social aspect to the cityscape—no doubt drawing from his training as an architect—continues to run through his practice today. He’s since shown notable works at London’s 180 The Strand for the major Transformer: A Rebirth of Wonder group exhibition last year, as well as a solo exhibition AIDOL 爱道 at Sadie Coles HQ.
