NO NO NSE NSE
Published on the occasion of Jenna Sutela’s exhibition of the same name at Kunsthall Trondheim, this book probes meaning and randomness in the artist’s wetware-powered work. With a special focus on Sutela’s latest work I Magma, co-commissioned by Serpentine Galleries and Moderna Museet in 2019, NO NO NSE NSE explores the notion of an oracular or alternative intelligence through the application of neural machinic and chemical processes.
NO NO NSE NSE includes contributions by Lars Bang Larsen, Stefanie Hessler, Caroline A. Jones, Hans Ulrich Obrist, Allison Parrish, Lars TCF Holdhus, and Ben Vickers. Co-published by Kunsthall Trondheim, Serpentine Galleries, and Koenig Books. Thanks to Finsk-Norsk Kulturinstitutt, Kulturrådet, and Oslo Kunstforening.
