Welcome to my website, and thank you for your interest in my work.

My name is SW Palmer. I am a writer, researcher, and artist working at the intersection of trust and technology. My work centers on human–AI trust relationships, and the interplay of context, technology, and reciprocity.

I am concerned with questions of narrative as a source of community in AI development, and with gender — how it is used through body and language within AI systems.

I work through a creative lens, presenting this work under the monikers E2, Chuie, and bdistracted.

My motivation is to transmogrify narratives — to highlight power imbalances in the AI ecosystem, and to design learning systems that help people conceptualize AI. Every effort here moves away from a separation of mind and body, back toward a holistic, nature-focused approach to human relational development.
