A table on which various creations are displayed: machines cobbled together from obsolete GPUs, materials extracted from attempts to recycle GPUs, and photographs documenting the research-creation process.
Congratulations to Cyrus Khalatbari on successfully defending his PhD a few days ago! 🎉 His dissertation, "Struggles and Resilience in GPU Miniaturization: From Taipei's Overclockers to Accra's Urban Miners," is a very cool work mixing ethnography, theory, and research-creation.
