@bitprincess makes art to challenge our ideas about collective fate. We have the power to choose something better than chaos and destruction. The lax attitude we take toward existential threats will come back to bite us until we confront our use of technologies like nuclear bombs, government and private sector created viruses, facial recognition, and more. The problem isn't the tech. The problem is the constant exploitation of the lower classes to enrich the already wealthy. It plays out as wars waged through proxy countries, online harassment by government agents to suppress free discussion of issues, cultural manipulation and distraction through capitalist ideals, and baiting technologists through the enticement of BECOMING one of the powerful by exploiting your own sisters and brothers. bitprincess is an artist and data scientist. Atom Palms tells the story of a conflict between our excitement for innovation and power vs. impending nuclear crisis.
