Bun Stout is a Chicago-based artist here for*

* generating possible futures in which artists and activists shape the technologies we are fusing with

* shape-shifting nightly to stay alive

* sitting down gently upon the hierarchy of taste

* sampling visual trends of the digital age + asking:

* how they are bound to historical visualizations of beauty and wonder

* and why they are so damn appealing to a population in the rush of deep change
