Quiet Praxis in the Age of Algorithms

For over a quarter-century, I have lived inside the architecture of the digital world. As a technologist and CIO, I helped build the very systems that now reshape human perception. I have seen the code that runs our reality. Yet, the deeper I ventured into the precision of 0s and 1s, the more I longed for the imprecise, fragile beauty of the "Real."

atelier α³ is born from this tension. It is not a rejection of technology, but a dialogue with it. We are likely the last generation to remember the distinct outline of "analog sensibilities" — the tactile, the temporal, the silence that exists without mediation.

Through photography, I seek to reawaken these dormant senses. My images do not document; they listen. They act as a poetic resistance to acceleration, observing the moment where data becomes feeling and precision gives way to presence.

In an age where AI begins to think,
we ask —
What does it still mean to feel?
