Stories. Systems. Shift.

Making sense of a world in transition through storytelling, art, and honest conversation.

I’m Gregg the Artivist — a storyteller, artist, and activist exploring the systems shaping our lives, from climate and technology to community, media, power, and human connection. Through videos, essays, podcasts, and public engagement, I create space to question what we’ve normalised, reconnect with what matters, and imagine different ways forward — together.

Wide cinematic website hero image for Activism and Algorithms. Gregg the Artivist looks at a phone in front of a dark grungy background filled with algorithmic overlays, social media metrics, declining reach numbers, restricted content warnings, network patterns, protest imagery and phrases about attention, outrage, addiction and dependency. A faded Gregg the Artivist logo appears behind him, suggesting the tension between activist visibility, platform power, digital dependency and meaningful impact.

Activism and Algorithms

After taking part in a Spanish and Dutch research group on activists and algorithms, I found myself sitting with a deeper question. Are activists really fighting for visibility, or are we asking for better access to systems that are already harming society?

Featured image for the READ article Care, in All Its Messiness. Two small rescued baby pigeons sit closely together on a folded dark towel while a hand gently cradles them from above. Part of a laptop sits to the right with the Gregg the Artivist logo visible on the screen. The lighting is warm and low, creating an intimate, calm, editorial feel that reflects the article’s themes of tenderness, interruption, and care.

Care in All Its Messiness

After several heavy, world focused pieces, this week’s READ turns to something quieter and much smaller. But not smaller in meaning. When two baby pigeons fell from a nest in my garden and their parents did not return, care arrived not as an idea, but as an interruption. What followed was...

Created to accompany the reflective READ article A Room Where Nothing Had to Be Solved about listening, emotional honesty, and spaces where nothing has to be solved.

A Room Where Nothing Had to Be Solved

After co facilitating a pilot gathering at The Hague Humanity Hub, I walked home thinking about what the morning had revealed. In a world that pushes speed, certainty, and solutions, this was a space for something else entirely. A space where grief, confusion, joy, and uncertainty could...
