In 2001, the Supreme Court ruled that thermal imaging through walls was an illegal search. In 2025, WiFi sensing was ratified as a consumer standard. By 2030, 112 million homes will have routers that detect presence, movement, and vital signs through walls. A major ISP already shares this data with law enforcement. No law specifically prevents it. From Kyllo to 802.11bf: how the wall stopped working.

Four new curator and artist profiles: Christiane Paul and the canonical Programmed lineage at the Whitney, Licia He and the community-first path to gallery representation, Monica Bello and the post-CERN Platform Dali residency model, and brief notes on Chus Martinez and Manuela Moscoso.

In 2016, Anselm Franke, Stephanie Hankey, and Marek Tuszynski brought together 40 artists at HKW Berlin to map how tracking technologies moved from exceptional to ambient. Farocki's operational images, Previeux's Patterns of Life, On Kawara's date paintings, and Tactical Tech's data literacy tools. A conversation about the exhibition that mapped the territory where sensing infrastructure now operates.

Julien Previeux's patent-as-choreographic-score practice, Sabine Himmelsbach's three decades building HEK Basel's critical technology mandate, and the plotter community's educational infrastructure.

MOMENTA 2027 curator Toleen Touq frames "The Long Now" as multiple overlapping temporalities, differentially lived. Plus the listening body, the Whitney Biennial institutional critique, and algorithms that look back.

What passes through walls, who gets to sense it, and what counts as evidence? From Abu Hamdan's forensic listening to Schuppli's material witnesses, from Browne's surveillance genealogy to IEEE 802.11bf. A conversation about the architecture of sensing and the politics of what walls know.

A deep look at Manfred Mohr, the founding institutional figure for algorithmic plotter art, and Felix Luque Sanchez, whose post-anthropic machines have no author left to surprise. Fifty-five years of the same question from opposite directions.

Tega Brain challenges the field: if systems optimize data into beauty, whose agenda do they serve? Plus the ZKM Connection Machine conference and visible computation, and new structural data on how careers bifurcate between the media art festival circuit and the gallery circuit.

A new naming has emerged in computational art discourse: Predictive Capital. Alongside Steyerl and Easterling from Tuesday, the critical vocabulary is converging fast on political economy frameworks. Also: how European funding infrastructure advantages geographic periphery, and two computational works that end on their own terms.

A retrospective on Vera Molnar and the machine imaginaire concept, plus two new confronter profiles: Claire Bishop on hybrid attention and the gray zone, and Eyal Weizman on the threshold of detectability.
