I M U

Juul van der Laan (NL)

I M U is an essay film installation which turns the viewer into one of its main characters through deepfake technology. It is a personal confrontation with this form of technology and a meditative intervention on what the self and your self-image really are.

Featuring philosopher Mogobe Ramose.

Bio

  • Juul van der Laan

    NL

    Juul van der Laan makes films independently. Initially trained in chemistry, she soon swapped lab equipment for a camera by continuing her studies in documentary film. Van der Laan’s work is characterised by a natural inclination to question general assumptions within the realm of the intellectual.
