Joost RekveldFrom 2016 already, but just arrived and super relevant to my current concerns; looking forward very much to having more time to read again in a week or so...
In a week, I will give a lecture-performance under the title "The Salt Transistor", sharing some of my research for the installation #79 that I hope to produce in the coming year as a response to a commission by Werktank in Leuven.

The marvelous exhibition "Deep Fields" at the Centre Wallonie-Bruxelles in Paris is still up for two weeks, including my installation #71.1 from 2019.
Curated by Félicie d’Estienne d’Orves and Olivier Schefer, in synergy with Stéphanie Pécourt.
During the time of the exhibition my book "Liberate the Machines !" is also for sale at the CWB.

Building things takes time, but we're getting there.
This may be my first arrival of a book published in 2026 and judging by its table of contents it looks like an amazingly complete and thorough critique of cybernetics, with some aspects reminding me of Céline Lafontaine's "L'empire cybernétique". But perhaps I should read it first..

Lo and finally behold: this somehow cute-looking but still untested see-through oven !
Whole new dimensions of fiddlyness; finally managed to pass those weird and stiff high-temperature and high-voltage resistant wires through several layers of that soft and brittle ceramic fiber board without causing too much damage.
Very curious about this one, the first pages are promising.
Visiting the collection center of the Ghent University Museum with students of the minor ArtScience.
Finished also the software for the much needed oven controller and it all seems to work as expected. Next step will be to finish building that oven...
