Flavia Dzodan
Flavia Dzodan is a researcher, theorist, and artist. Working across video, sound, and micro-publication, she examines how computational infrastructures capture, route, and standardise affect. Her practice traces the genealogy of user experience (UX) design through military command-and-control systems, Taylorist models of efficiency, and domestic technologies, revealing how optimisation and prediction regulate emotional and political life.
Her ongoing project Affective Logistics investigates latency, vital austerity, and the logistical capture of emotion through sonification, video installation, and writing. Across these mediums, Dzodan develops recursive and hauntological methodologies that foreground incompletion, opacity, and refusal as epistemic conditions of the diasporic subject.
She is a professor and head of the research group Algorithmic Cultures at the Gerrit Rietveld Academie and Sandberg Instituut in Amsterdam, where she studies the computational infrastructures shaping intimacy, mourning, and futurity.
