Grayson Earle is a US-born artist whose work turns technical systems against the politics built into them. His film Why don’t the cops fight each other? searches the code of the video game Grand Theft Auto V for a way to make its police fight one another. Bail Bloc, his software, mined cryptocurrency on volunteers’ computers to post bail for people held in New York City jails. He has exhibited at KW Institute for Contemporary Art, the Singapore Art Museum, and is currently an artist-in-residence in the European Commission Joint Research Centre’s Reimagining AI programme. Earle is based in Berlin.
