About
Ama Algorithmus (Mother Algorithm) by Axel Garay is a photo-media and audiovisual installation that explores the mysticism and beliefs surrounding algorithmic technology and the unseen influence of digital systems in contemporary life. Expanding on a project first presented at the 2025 Yirramboi Festival, the work brings together cyanotypes, lightbox pieces, projected video, and an original soundscape by cellist Thomas Veitch.
Through these interconnected forms, Axel reflects on how technology and artificial intelligence are often imbued with an aura of mystery and reverence – concealing the commercial and political structures that shape them.
