Adrian Goycoolea is an Associate Professor of Media and Film at the University of Sussex's School of Media, Arts and Humanities. Born in Brazil to Chilean and British parents, his work interrogates identity, memory, and politics through experimental film, multi-channel installations, and documentaries. He holds a BFA from the School of Visual Arts (New York) and an MFA from the University of Iowa.
His research explores intersections between queer performance, generative AI, and historical trauma. Notable projects include ¡Viva Chile Mierda! (documenting Pinochet-era atrocities), AI Jetée (an AI-driven remake of Chris Marker's La Jetée), and installations like Personal Effects reconstructing Quentin Crisp's East Village apartment. His work has screened at Rotterdam, Moscow, and BFI London Film Festivals, and been archived by the BFI.

- Teaching: BA Filmmaking program developer, teaches experimental media and activist film
- Awards: Special Jury Mention (El Ojo Cojo Festival), Top Chilean Film 2014 (Twitchfilm)
Recent exhibitions include dual screenings of AI Jetée alongside Marker's original, probing AI's impact on artistic authenticity. His work consistently challenges boundaries between human and machine creativity, memory and fabrication.
