Artist biography:

Michigan native Nathan D. Horowitz has a BA in English and an MA in Applied Linguistics. After four years in Latin America and fifteen in Austria, he lives in Baltimore, Maryland. He is the author of at least two and possibly as many as three or four (the matter is unclear) volumes of creative nonfiction about Ecuadorian ayahuasca shamanism, and the translator of three volumes of Ecuadorian fiction, one volume of Venezuelan poetry, and the autobiography of the last shaman-chief of the Siekopai people of the Amazon Rainforest. His work has been published in Ashé, the Cenacle, Dragibus, Driesch, Psychedelic Press UK, Qarrtsiluni, Kritya, Maquina Combinatoria, WordCityLit, Global City Review, and the Michigan Quarterly Review.

Some background information on this project: Unknown to each other, both Nathan and Nicola, were drawn to the same analogue collage art by Winborn for digital reinvention. Nathan was compelled to rework the analogue art through AI approaches, and Nicola used Glitch Applications. Nicola was particularly fascinated by the fact that her and Nathan both embarked on this quest without initially consulting each other: it wasn’t until Nathan approached Nicola privately that they each realised there was this incredible overlap! Nicola felt this was a great opportunity to collaborate together. The result is 26 Visions – A Collaboration, which consists of digital visual pieces and interviews with both artists. 26 Visions – A Collaboration appears in linked instalments on this website.
