 This is the public start page of my personal librarinth: an online scrapbook that I used in the course of the research project 'Dialogues with Machines' that ran from February 2017 to October 2024. I undertook this project as a researcher in the [[http://kask.be/en/education/courses/media-art/|Media Arts Studio]] of the [[https://schoolofartsgent.be/ee/en/research/|KASK Conservatorium / University College Ghent]], and it resulted in a doctorate in the arts as part of the [[https://www.ugent.be/lw/kunstwetenschappen/en/research-groups/spam|S:PAM, Studies in Performing Arts and Media]] research group at the University of Ghent. My promotors were Christel Stalpaert and Edwin Carels.
-The most tangible public results of this project are a written thesis and my film #59. The public defense of the PhD took place on the 28th of October 2024, and the committee consisted of Charo Calvo, Gertrudis Van de Vijver, Jerry Galle and Jean Paul van Bendegem, with Maximiliaan Martens as chair and Pieter-Jan Maes as the secretary.

 The essays collected in this dissertation are attempts to uncover possible sources of the agency of machines. In the long essay //Liberate the Machines !//, a theoretical and historical context is given to the making of Rekveld's film //Mechanisms Common to Disparate Phenomena; #59//, a feature-length abstract animated science fiction film that looks at the experiences shared by humans and electronic circuits during the Cold War. It also narrates Rekveld's personal experience of a dialogue with machines in the process of producing this film and in devising the analogue computing tools that were used for making it. These two strands come together in a view on the interaction between humans and computing machines and the role of media-archaeology in investigating this relation, interpreted as an example of the mutual construction of humans and their technology. Under the title //Seven Devices//, Rekveld wrote seven media-archaeological essays. Topics are discussed from the history of electronic analogue computing, animated automata, cybernetics and self-organisation, each constituting a different approach to reflect on the agency of machines."
