2026 Theme Announcement

In 2026, EMF goes to space!

Electromagnetic Field Blog

Also, if anyone has a lead on who made this amazing bird box installation last year, I'd love to talk to them!

Oh yeah, speaking of EMF, we have a new socials account for the Installations team: @installations

Feel free to follow it for future arty announcements. You'll notice that it doesn't have a profile picture or header image yet, so also feel free to hit us up with ideas for a team logo. What says Installations @ EMF to you?

I am almost finished with xmas now (which, I should point out, I have been working on since January…) so this afternoon is all about EMF!
Still working out what’s next, but I’d love to continue working on and learning about biodiversity monitoring and bioacoustics. It seems inevitable at this point that I’ll have to move to do that, but if anyone knows of any opportunities coming up in the Netherlands, I’d really appreciate it!

Oh yay! New problem to deal with: we've gone from about 500 DNS queries a day on the #OutputArts domain earlier in the year to an average of about 4000 per day over the last couple of months, and an extraordinary 24,000 queries in one day last week

Our work is absolutely not that popular, so there's some commercial-strength bullshit going on here. Imma gonna guess fucking AI web crawlers

Hung the kid's lanterns on the tree today (and put one of our big stars at the top). It looks a bit unbalanced, but we wanted to keep the lanterns near enough to the bottom that the pupils' work can be seen properly from the ground
The Alpaca festival (on algorithmic patterns in the creative arts) aftermovie and photography now live on our website ! https://2025.algorithmicpattern.org/sheffield/

In more serious news, today is International Day for the Elimination of Violence against Women and the beginning of the UN's 16 Days of Activism against Gender-Based Violence

#OutputArts recently worked with survivors to produce a booklet giving practical advice on how you can be a good friend to someone experiencing abuse. You can download a copy to read or print at our website:

16 Days of Activism against Gender-Based Violence

Women and girls around the world are exposed to online violence and digital abuse every day. AI is powering new and more sophisticated forms of digital violence. The crisis of gender-based violence is urgent. There is #NoExcuse for online abuse against women and girls. The 16 Days of Activism is an opportunity to revitalize commitments and to call for accountability and action from decision-makers, the tech sector, and users of digital services.
