Can Art Help Us Find and Hold a Paradise of Our Own?
Raza Tariq's work is a cosmology of spirituality, technology, the algorithmic financialisation of religious life, cosmotechnics and other subterranean thoughts that surface and expose themselves through various mediums, from writing and film to installations.
Speaking with Sarra Alayyan, Tariq discusses Islam and the algorithm, Sufi philosophy, the unseen logic of money and transhumanism, the omniscient surveillance built into everyday objects, and why he'd rather build his own Silicon Valley for £500 than wait for anyone else's paradise to arrive.
