Cailean Finn is a Media Artist and Creative Technologist from Waterford, Ireland. His practice is centred around exploring the indosyncratic nature of the human-machine realtionship through an investigation of computational histories, practices, and technolgoies such as - Creative Coding, Artificial Intelligence, Simulations, and Embedded Computing.
Cailean holds a BSc in Computer Science (2019), and a MA in Art & Technology (2022) from the University of Limerick, where he is currently pursuing his PhD in Media Art. His current research is focused on areas in Robotics, Artificial Intelligence/Life, and Cybernetics.
Cailean Finn (b. 1997) is an Irish media artist, researcher, and creative technologist from Waterford, Ireland. His practice investigates the idiosyncratic nature of human–machine relationships, drawing from computational histories and engaging with technologies and practices such as creative coding, artificial intelligence/life, game development, and electronics. Through these inquiries, he reflects on how machines mediate agency, perception, and interaction within digital cultures.
Cailean is also a member of CONCEPTNULL, a community-based artist-led organisation, which runs a bi-monthly newsletter and hosts events with a focus on providing accessible platforms for the New Media Arts community in Ireland.
His current research explores robotics, artificial intelligence, and artificial life, with a particular focus on emergent behaviour as a material for interaction. He approaches these themes through experimentation, hacking, and critical reflection, creating works that blend computation, embodiment, and inquiry into human–machine relations.
Cailean holds a BSc in Computer Science (2019) and an MA in Art & Technology (2022) from the University of Limerick, where he is presently pursuing a PhD in Media Art. He is also a member of CONCEPTNULL, an artist-led, community-driven organisation that publishes a bi-monthly newsletter and organises events to support accessible platforms for new media arts in Ireland.
