Biography
Marc Lafia is based in Brooklyn and teaches at Columbia University. He treats the image as an event rather than a record, using computation and algorithms to organize images and information. His work has been shown in ZKM's Net Condition and Future Cinema, the Walker Art Center's Let's Entertain, the Centre Pompidou and ICC Tokyo. He and Fang-Yu Lin recompose Gillo Pontecorvo's 1965 film The Battle of Algiers as a network of self organized cells that trigger video of each side's tactics when they meet.
