Amisola's practice traces technology's relationship with ambience, agency, and the apparitional in spaces domestic to divine. They are interested in duration and density: the intimacies of our infrastructures, what emerges from systems & scales beyond our interpretability, and the narratives that might come of them.

An artist, designer, and programmer, they work through websites, sound, and hypertexts in form of performances, games, lectures, and video.

Presently, their body of work centers around hypertext, totality, and density: performing 'internet ambient' works, writing interactive non/autofictions that contest reading, authorship, and legibility amongst the fictions/realities of online place. They draw from MMOs, call centers, early web militarism, POGOS, forums, & other internet margins to look at the extremes of digital spaces, the exploitations that enable them, and the fantasies of agency/autonomy they present.
