Digital Culture & AudioVisual Challenges

Angelina Almukhametova (b. Kazan, Russia) is a US-based transdisciplinary artist whose research engages cybernetics, technoculture, and the interplay of digital and analog systems. Almukhametova works across performance, installation, and sculpture to create autonomous, indeterminate systems that respond to site and context. Almukhametova's current research examines neon beyond semiotic and figurative forms, to affirm the medium’s material agency within cultural and aesthetic assemblages and to discover its affective impact on human and non-human sense apparatuses. This research in effect aims to confront conventional modes of artistic engagement with light media. Almukhametova holds a BFA in Art & Technology from the School of the Art Institute of Chicago. She has exhibited and performed work internationally, and has presented her research at SGMK Hackteria (CH), BioFeral.BeachCamp (GR), FEMeeting 2023 (US), TabooTransgression-Transcendence 2023 (MT), Experimental Sound Studio, and the San Francisco Contemporary Jewish Museum (US), among others.
