Pandemic Reflection Machine is a generative video installation, coded by me, that revisits artistic reflections from the Covid-19 lockdown, drawing on interviews with 16 international digital artists featured in the Covid E-Lit exhibition at ELO 2021. Through a stylized interactive interface based on Zoom, viewers follow threads of video clips through topics like loss, resilience, inequality, the climate crisis, and platform capitalism. The project invites viewers to reflect on how digital art and collective memory can shape new imaginaries for the future.

Interviewed artists: Alex Saum, Jody Zellen, xtine burrough, Mark Marino and his family, Annie Abrahams, Ben Grosser, Mark Sample, Sharon Daniel and Erik Loyer, Giselle Beiguellman, Mohammed Bilal, Gulia Carla Rossi, Jörg Piringer, Judd Morrisey, Mark Jeffrey, and Ava Avnisan.
