1. Why did you choose this topic?

Social media have become an inescapable part of everyday life, and artistic experiences are no exception. I chose this topic to disentangle this relationship and to understand how space is no longer simply represented, but actively constituted through the interplay of artistic practices, institutional frameworks, and platform logics that reshape visibility, access, and participation.

2. What new perspectives does your book offer?

The book combines media theory, sociology of space, big data urban planning, self organising maps and cultural analysis, a combination that occasionally resembles an academic dinner party with incompatible guests. Yet precisely through these frictions, it develops a perspective on Hybrid Art Spaces that no single discipline could produce alone.

3. What makes your topic relevant for current research debates?

After attending one too many conferences on AI, digital technologies, art, and architecture, I began to feel that space itself was strangely disappearing from the conversation. This book is, in part, an attempt to bring it back into the discussion.

4. Choose one person you would like to discuss your book with!

I treat this question a bit playfully, but if he were still alive, I would genuinely like to discuss and probably have this book critically dismantled by Cedric Price. His understanding of architecture extended far beyond static form to include information flows, participation, temporality, and changing social relations, all of which strongly resonate with the spatial conditions explored in Hybrid Art Spaces and with me, an architect playing across disciplines.

5. Your book summary in one sentence:

Hybrid Art Spaces examines how art, space, and digital media intersect to produce hybrid forms of spatial experience and cultural visibility.
