Book Synopsis
The first publication dedicated to Refik Anadol Studio's data-driven digital art--pulsating, vibrant installations that have appeared at MoMA and the Sphere
Over the past decade, Refik Anadol (born 1985) has redefined the possibilities of media art. Since its founding in 2014, his studio has pioneered the use of custom artificial intelligence models trained on vast datasets drawn from nature, urban life and cultural memory to create generative realities. From weather patterns and ocean currents to city archives, museum collections and brain scans, the studio transforms raw data into monumental visual experiences that expand the vocabulary of contemporary art. Living Archive offers the first comprehensive chronicle of this trajectory, tracing more than 10 years of innovation in data sculpture, AI-driven visualization and large-scale immersive installations. The publication situates the studio's projects within a wider cultural and technological history, demonstrating how they have contributed to shaping a new field.
