Thank you to @right_clicksave for including me in this survey of Apple at 50 years, a privilege to have a few recent works featured.
I might add that I didn't set out to be an Apple enthusiast - my first computer was an IBM XT! But they came to me when I lived in the Bay Area, and artists use what's around them.
~ Welcoming back our long term peer Dev Harlan @devharlan to the Online Residency 2026. Always a pleasure to be part of his path•••
𝗗𝗘𝗩 𝗛𝗔𝗥𝗟𝗔𝗡 is an artist based in New York working in sculpture, installation, and digital media. He engages themes of posthumanism, anthropogenic change, and technological consumption through a practice of object-making, assemblage, video projection, and coding. Harlan employs technology reflexively, using it to question its own assumptions and to challenge the perceived binary between human techno-culture and the natural world. Drawing on ecocriticism and climate science, his work examines how these domains are deeply entangled.
