In the summer of 1996, Æ was initiated as an artistic research unit based on a philosophical exchange between artists Gisèle Trudel and Stéphane Claude, with the regular participation of collaborators from other fields (art, science, philosophy, engineering, etc.). Ælab’s commitment to collaboration and creative dissemination are ways of thinking and doing that try to bridge these different fields of inquiry. Their process-oriented investigations creatively engage art and technology as intertwined with processual philosophies in an ecology of practices. Their work is presented regularly.
