Gene Anthony Santiago-Holt (They/Them) is a Diasporican multimedia artist, game designer, and performer exploring decolonial glitch aesthetics, ancestral memory, and the cyborg as resistance. Their work blends poetic theory, anti-fascist worldbuilding, and experimental media through interactive projects that reject linearity, legibility, and compliance. They are the creator of MAGIKINGDOM Daymare: Chapter Uno and No Sun For Nu Boricua (xNxSxFxNxBx), and are currently a PhD student in Digital Media at Drexel University. Their work has been exhibited at Vox Populi and The Delaware Contemporary, as well as internationally at WIRWIR in Berlin and PiranesiLAB in Moscow.
