Scripting for Agency
About this Series Drawing on the central distinction between character and the human being, this concluding chapter reflects on the human being as a universal character-playing machine—overqualified for society, yet continually reduced to the streamlined “social agent.” We revisit key ideas introduced across the series, including character as a behavioural attractor, frame switching as a creative method and a politics of inner self. What do we gain by seeing character not as essence but as software—mutable, expressive, and plural? And what are the social and artistic implications of cultivating personal diversity, alongside social diversity? This closing video offers a vocabulary and aesthetic framework for reimagining the self—not as a fixed identity, but as a site of ongoing negotiation between freedom and coherence, diversity and sociality. About this Series Scripting for Agency: An Artistic Enquiry into Selfhood, Character and Agency in the Age of AI is a video lecture series based on Dr Katarina Ranković’s practice-based PhD in Fine Art at Goldsmiths, University of London. Combining philosophy, performance, creative writing, and AI theory, the series explores how our understanding of the self shapes our personal lives, our politics, and our relationship to intelligent technologies.
