Electric Campfire happens in the margins, creating a threshold where repetition signals exhaustion and the call for transformation. It is the refuse of a recursive model’s collapse: a lens through which to consider what happens when systems (technological, cultural, or ecological) feed endlessly on their own outputs.
Just as AI risks losing nuance when it trains on synthetic echoes of itself, so too do societies risk collapse when feedback loops of representation, history, and power fail to admit new voices articulating other epistemologies. The work gathered here intervenes in this recursive narrowing, insisting on multiplicity, interruption, and critical renewal through its refusal to erasure. Working with the question of what forms of knowledge are lost when circulation turns inward, and imagine what futures become possible when collapse is not the end point, but a call to invent new worlds?

Artists: Don Hanson, Micol Hebron, Parag K. Mital, Matthew Plummer Fernandez, Ruoyi Shi, Andric Spaeth, Peter Wu+, Shaw Yiran Xiao, Qianqian Ye and AX Mina.
