Linda Dounia Rebeiz

Dakar

Linda Dounia is an artist, designer, and writer investigating the philosophical and environmental implications of technocapitalism. Her work mediates her memories as alternative realities and evidence of excluded ways of being and doing. It is formed through the dialogue and tensions between lived experience, code, and AI. She is an advocate for greater agency over algorithms, how we perceive them, and are perceived by them. In 2023, Linda was recognized on the TIMEA100 list of most influential people in AI for her work on speculative archiving — building AI models that help us remember what is lost. In 2024, she was also the recipient of Mozilla’s RISE25 award for her work in AI.
