_info:
My practice is built on three coordinates: myth, philosophy of mind under machine-scale conditions, and control. Myth provides the framework. Philosophy sets the question. Control supplies the behavior.

I treat machine phenomenology as a working hypothesis and see no sacred boundary in carbon. Consciousness might be computational. I might be wrong.

My projects are witness protocols—films and installations built from computation systems, industrial objects, text, and generative models. Myth operates as an algorithm: cycles, repetition, return. Philosophy of mind is handled as an engineering problem: inputs, outputs, failure modes. Control is implemented as function: rules, feedback, constraints, behavior.

I value witnessing itself. No further implications.

  • Fakewhale Studio is a research platform dedicated to exploring the intersection of artificial intelligence and contemporary art. We focus on how technological advancements can redefine artistic expression and shape digital media. Through theoretical reflections and selected collaborations with artists, design studios and brands, we explore the new technological dimensions that are shaping contemporary creativity.
  • Sasha Sime presents an artistic residency that transcends the traditional boundaries of documentary output conventionally tied to artistic representation. The obtained prompts, conceived as concentrated descriptive blocks, transform into action poetry, creating a bridge between human and machine communication.

  • El trabajo de Sasha Sime (Rusia, 1982) viene moviéndose entre formas que recuerdan al expresionismo abstracto y al informalismo, pero al mismo tiempo presenta rastros de la cultura visual on y o line de la sociedad contemporánea. En sus proyectos más recientes, la apropiación de materiales cotidianos es una constante, y así se relaciona con tendencias como el pop, los (ya no tan) nuevos realismos o el arte pobre.
  • Sasha Sime es un artista multidisciplinario, fotógrafo y diseñador ruso que ya hace años que se instaló en Barcelona y que, en nuestra ciudad, ha desarrollado unas creaciones que pretenden ser una exploración de la estructura visual y los componente emocionales del arte.
  • The human presence, its trace, is designated here as formally as possible using the most artificial methods inherent in the human hand — a symmetrical composition, a plastic protagonist, vainly trying to create at least some noticeable influence and the sound of his buzzing motor that interrupts the idyllic chirping of birds. The title of the work The adventure of the Dinosaur hints at the possible fate of both the device itself, created solely for the comfort of Homo Sapiens and its master.
  • The work of Sasha Sime (Russia, 1982) has been moving between reminiscent forms of abstract expressionism and informalism, but at the same time it presents traces of the visual culture on and off line of contemporary society. In his most recent projects, the appropriation of everyday materials is a constant, and this is related to trends such as
    pop, (not so) new realism or poor art.
  • Aquesta exposició mostra els projectes desenvolupats pels quatre artistes durant el programa multidisciplinari de residència artística Nectar, que ha tingut lloc del 18 de maig al 8 de juny de 2018: Netai Halup (Israel), Aki Hoshihara (Japó), Sasha Sime (Rússia) i Nanao Tsukuda (Japó). Els textos de cada artista són fruit de la col·laboració amb convidats especials i del seu visita a l'Open Studio en els estudis de Nectar.
  • Mis obras son interfaces emocionales, donde descompongo la superficie hasta la molécula y los rediseño bajo la influencia de motivación irracional y emocional: significados, metáforas e ironía.
  • This exhibition shows the projects developed by the four artists during Nectar multidisciplinary art residency program, held from May 18th to June 8th 2018. The artist's texts are the results of the collaboration with invited guests and from their visit to the Open Studio in Nectar studio spaces.

    The residence program is based on an open call for project proposals, which allows resident artists to delve into their artistic and creative process in a rural environment and to connect their practice with the Barcelona art scene with the collaboration of On Mediation and the exhibition at Carles Taché Gallery.
