Haunted by Algorithms, the second part of the Media Mediums project, starts with the postulate that belief in spirit phenomena has faded or rather transmuted since its golden age and despite the overabundance of cultural references to ghosts, goblins, poltergeists and zombies in recent popular culture, they are all just machinic trace effects, allegories for our disquieting wonder before the general algorithmization of everything.
We have become more and more enlaced with intelligent and distributed agents which capture and serve as proxies for our perceptions, emotions, moods and most intimate desires. Essential acts such as eating, caring, sheltering, loving, and reproducing have been optimized, instrumentalized, financialized and fluidified within a vast informational ocean. The radical de-centering described earlier, special cases in which humans are traversed by other entities which appropriate their bodies as communication devices seems to have become our general condition in the age of intelligent machines. It is as if another type of phantom ecology has descended upon Earth, entangling itself into our very existence. We are haunted by algorithms.
