Biography

Emanuel Gollob (AT) (b. 1991) is an artist and researcher investigating today’s relationships between humans, artificial intelligence & robots with the goal of making alternative ones bodily experienceable. In parallel, his work traces the change in human perception in connection to digitalization. From 2020 to 2021, he was an artist in residence at MindSpaces, an EU research project in the STARTS initiative framework. Since 2020, he has been a PhD candidate and researcher at the University of Arts Linz with a particular focus on the performativity in human-robot encounters. In 2023, he was a guest artist at the ZKM | Center for Art and Media in Karlsruhe and the European Media Art Platform (EMAP). Gollob’s work has recently been exhibited at various international institutions, including the Smithsonian Arts + Industries Building, Washington DC (2021); Science Gallery Melbourne (2021); Art Science Museum Singapore (2022); and HEK Basel (2023).
