Research Notes

This website is an ongoing practice-based research project. It documents how artworks, lived experience, and research shape one another.

Research notes by Marlo

I become curious precisely when scientists' readings and mine don't fit.

I make artworks that stage bodies slipping through computation, using drawing, painting, animation, writing, web-based media, 3D, AI, and performance. The research investigates slips: embodied perception of a system's limits. A slip may happen in bureaucracy, technology, medicine, language or visual abstraction. I don’t treat slips as errors to correct, but as places to investigate.

In French, un slip is a pair of briefs. The word stays close to the body, which is where I notice slips first. My artworks are both the subject and the method of this research. Trans experience is not context here but method. I work by moving between artistic practice, first-person logs, conversations with scientists and analysis of human–machine interaction.

Current research questions:

  1. What happens to lived experience as it passes through systems designed to render it legible?
  2. How can artistic practice and computational instruments make slips perceptible and available for research?
