In his, Goldbergprofessor of electrical engineering and computer sciences at UC Berkeley, co-founder of Ambidextrous Robotics and the Moxie Instituteis best known for visualizing ideas through telerobotics, automation, and AI."
"We were both working on them, says Shlainshe on Dendrofemenology, a series reimagining tree ring dating through a feminist lens, Goldberg on a census that analyzed foliage density to illustrate neighborhood inequities in Los Angeles. Combining forces spawned a whole new kind of offspring. They called it Ancient Wisdom for a Future Ecology: Trees, Time, and Technology. At birth, their progeny was six works intertwining natural and digital worlds through time,"
Tiffany Shlain and Ken Goldberg collaborated on Ancient Wisdom for a Future Ecology: Trees, Time, and Technology, a multimedia series examining trees through feminist and technological lenses. The project fuses Shlain's Dendrofemenology and Goldberg's foliage-density census into artworks that intertwine natural and digital elements. The initial presentation at the Skirball Cultural Center in 2024 comprised six works; the collection expanded to 24 pieces now shown at di Rosa SF. The works probe patriarchy, colonialism, neighborhood inequities, and the passage of time using reclaimed wood, telerobotics, automation, and AI. The collaboration builds on three decades of shared creative practice.
