Daily Program / Season #2

Feb 26, 2025 - Jul 22, 2026

Overview

We need to pay attention to what artists are doing. They have the sensibility to foresee where our world is going, and we need to support their visions.

- Alejandro Cartagena

The Daily Program Season 2 follows from the first year of the Fellowship Daily Program, showcasing outstanding works from select artists who emerged during the inaugural period. Each month, we curate exceptional artworks, still images, GIFs, and videos, from this talented group, presenting them prominently in the first week of each month.
The Fellowship Daily Program's first year was dedicated to AI video, documenting one of the medium's most rapidly evolving periods. With contributions from 137 artists worldwide, creating over 3,500 unique works, the program stands as a comprehensive exploration of AI video's technical, aesthetic, and conceptual advancements from 2023 to 2024. Artists experimented boldly, from SORA to text-to-story narratives, significantly advancing their individual voices and the capabilities of the medium.
Looking forward, the Daily Program Season 2 focuses on a carefully chosen group of artists whose exceptional potential we are committed to supporting through dedicated curation, mentorship, and promotion throughout 2025. As AI tools rapidly evolve, these artists are at the forefront, exploring new dimensions within their creative practice. The Daily Program Season 2 provides a supportive platform for artists to share their evolving journeys, breakthroughs, and ongoing dialogues with both their peers and collectors.

Lately, my work has turned toward the tension between memory and fabrication. I’ve been using machine hallucinations to reconstruct what’s missing, lost realities, unrealized thoughts, and emotional debris. Rather than seeking clarity, I’m interested in how AI misremembers, how it speculates. I’ve leaned into that failure, letting the system act less as a tool and more as a flawed collaborator, one that simulates recollection but never lands on truth. This recent body of work isn’t concerned with clean representation; it’s about dislocation, synthetic memory, and the emotional charge of things that feel remembered, even when they never were.
