Antikythera

Antikythera is a program reorienting planetary-scale computation as a philosophical, technological and geopolitical force. The program’s five research themes are Synthetic Intelligence, Recursive Simulations, Synthetic Catallaxy, Hemispherical Stacks, and Planetary Sapience. Antikythera convenes 75+ leading Affiliate Researchers (philosophers, engineers/ programmers, technologists, designers) who work with 18 Studio Researchers to develop new philosophy, research and speculative design. Antikythera is directed by philosopher of technology Benjamin Bratton. Antikythera’s founding partner is Berggruen Institute, a think tank in Los Angeles, which supports all aspects of Antikythera design, development, and delivery. The Studio is developed in partnership with One Project, a non-profit and giving foundation.
