Keynote Lecture: Sasha Stiles, 2026 PNCA Symposium
About this Event
Sasha Stiles is a first-generation Kalmyk-American poet and language artist whose work explores what it means to be human in a more-than-human world. Her interdisciplinary practice reimagines poetry as an ancient technology and a living computational medium, advancing poetic intelligence — the synthesis of emotion and algorithm — as a philosophy for the generative age. Her work has been honored with the Prix Ars Electronica and Lumen Prize, featured in The New York Times, Poets & Writers, and Artforum, and exhibited internationally, including at MoMA and Art Basel. A recent Monument Lab Fellow and Google Arts & Culture Artist-in-Residence, she has been co-evolving with her AI alter ego, Technelegy, since 2018.
