Pinar Yoldas is the guest of the 9th episode of the podcast series I made with artists who 1. are among my absolute cultural heroes and 2. have exhibited at Aksioma Institute for Contemporary Art in Ljubljana.

Pinar Yoldas, The Kitty AI : Artificial Intelligence for Governance, 2016

Dr. Pinar Yoldas is an artist and a scientist with a background in neuroscience, information technologies and architecture. She is also a professor in visual arts at University of California San Diego. Pinar’s artworks are playful, dark and deeply grounded in science.

In this episode, we talk about feminist technoscience, AI kittens governing cities, coping with bleak scenarios for the future and engineering new sexual organs that anyone could use, no matter their gender and sexual orientation.

I hope you enjoy the episode!
