Blots diffusion: what do you see? explores how projection of taboos and societal fears underlies the policing of marginalized bodies and how generative AI perpetuates normativity and exclusion through representation biases. It is an interactive performative DJ set weaving around electronic musics during which my trans body is reshaped by an NSFW AI model according to prompts suggested by the audience. It raises questions on agency, abjection, and self-representation.
edna is multidisciplinary artist and scientist, blending sound art, experimental music, and digital performance. Her background in material chemistry and heritage sciences and her work on the origin of colours in the first colour photographic process resulted in her PhD graduation from the Ecole Normale Superieure (Paris) in 2018. In the framework of the SACRe doctoral program (Science, Arts, Création, Recherches) she initiated Arts/Sciences collaboration on photographic processes, and image formation. As an artist and trans woman, her work intersects vulnerability, body politics, and more recently AI. She uses DJing and live performances to challenge normative ideas about identity, technology, and censorship. Her recent performances in SOMA gallery in Marseille, Maloka Interactive Museum in Bogotá and Casa Bagre in Lima explored topics such as depersonalization, self-representation, and healing through collaborative, immersive sonic and visual experiences. Her scientific background uniquely informs her artistic practices and enables her to approach projects with a blend of analytical depth and creative experimentation.
