Bio

Ayodele Arigbabu

With a background in architecture and creative technology, AYODELE ARIGBABU’s work explores the interfaces where design, art and evolving technologies intercept, with speculation as a recurrent strategy. He is the publisher and editor of LAGOS_2060, an anthology of science fiction from Africa, and was curator of the Lagos edition of a festival on diverse future perspectives of the African continent, produced by Goethe Institut in 2015 tagged African Futures. He has served as juror, festival director and board member in international arts and futures networks. He is a PhD candidate in Artistic Research at NTNU’s Trondheim Academy of Fine Art, where his Forward Remembrance project explores latent utopias through the diverse ways in which artificial intelligence mirrors human aspirations.
