LAUNCHING 19/03/26 Pre-order Now

BHAM💥 The Black Hole Aesthetic Machine is an imaginary product and service designed to help humans come to terms with their impending obsolescence. Assembled from seemingly disparate images, it is a conceptual object that provides guidance and self-help exercises – not for purchase by consumers, but to demonstrate how purchasing, consuming, and identity maintenance operate as informational pattern-creation within the limits of one’s parochial position. It processes whatever temporary configurations (human, machine, theistic entity) engage with it and has no interest in the entity’s interpretation – be that honest recommendation, dark humour, or outright insult.

BHAM💥 was made for The Doughnut(W)Hole Pavilion as part of The Wrong Biennale (7th Edition) 2025/26 which runs from the 1st of November 2025 to the 31st of March 2026.

The printed publication will be launched on the 19th March 2026 at Putney Library where an audience is invited to attend, play and contribute to the speculation. Refreshments provided, followed by a reading by Sarah-Jane Field with games and dialogue and a short talk delivered by The Doughnut(W)Hole curator, Kim Shaw.
