Aubrey Birdwell
Aubrey Birdwell is a new media and installation artist whose practice merges post-digital aesthetics, computational processes, and media archaeology. His work explores architectures of language, disappearance, and digital decay through hybrid systems of light, code, and material. He holds an M.S. in Computer Science from Georgia Institute of Technology and a B.A. & B.S. dual degree from The Evergreen State College. Early travel along the highways and flea markets of the United States fostered a fascination with obsolescence, found objects, and the shifting landscapes of urban detritus. This sensibility evolved into a practice grounded in material culture and the archaeology of the contemporary past, especially the layers of technologies we leave behind. His current work extends this practice by fusing digital and analog processes to explore the aesthetics of disappearance and memory, constructing custom generative and feedback systems that map, traverse, and recombine obsolete media.
