  • Tangivirtuality 2

    Tangivirtuality 2

    Daniel Chiang (TW)

    Sensory experiences serve as our primary methods to acquire information. The knowledge and intuition derived from these experiences constitute the fundamental basis for human thought and cognition. In this artwork, virtual scientific images intertwine with real sensations of touch.

  • Spectacle Extension

    Spectacle Extension

    Tzu-Yung Kuo (TW)

    Can we trust what we see? How confident are we in discerning reality? Should we continuously seek the truth? How much of the flashing scenes remain in our memory? It is difficult for us to distinguish between reality and memory.

  • Positive Electricity – Plan

    Positive Electricity – Plan

    Zu-Hao Zheng (TW)

    Neuroscientist Marcus E. Raichle suggests that daydreaming acts as a stress response, regulating external stimuli. He posits that while daydreaming, brain circuits enter a closed state, generating “random noise” akin to a TV without signal or a sleeping computer. Contrasting this with personal experience, I have noticed unconscious daydreaming is common.

  • Looking at Between

    Looking at Between

    Kun-Yu Lu (TW)

    This artwork utilizes 3D scanning technology to recreate real-life individuals within a virtual environment. Reflecting on the digital age, relationships between people seem increasingly to resemble virtual states within reality.

  • Ghosts of Google

    Ghosts of Google

    Pei-Ting Hsieh (TW)

    The images in the artwork are all captured by taking screenshots from Google Street View, and then processed to remove backgrounds, allowing these portraits, erased by AI, to become the subjects of renewed contemplation.

  • ToyBoi

    ToyBoi

    Hsiang-Yun Huang (TW), Claudia Oliveira (PT), Lotte Louise de Jong (NL), Gema FB Martín (ES)

    ToyBoi reflects on the patriarchal infrastructure of Deep Nude technology. Specifically, it refers to AI tools that are often used to generate non-consensual nude images of women. While these tools effectively strip women, they often fail to undress men realistically, resulting in images of men with deformed genitalia.

  • meta:morphosis

    meta:morphosis

    Aleksandra Naydenova (BG), Amber Macintyre (GB), Cyan D’Anjou (US/NL), Dorijn Boogaard (NL), Kurina Sohn (KR)

    Inspired by the Right to be Forgotten legislation, meta:morphosis features a workshop and an interactive installation where participants can explore their digital pasts and learn to reshape online narratives. Audience members will add their own experiences with data by writing on dissolvable soap paper and then putting it into a fountain (like a coin to…

  • Espresso Exposé

    Espresso Exposé

    Mona Hedayati (CA), Wouter Maas (NL), Sander Veenhof (NL)

    Espresso Exposé is an interactive artwork that shines a light on how AI is increasingly reconfiguring our daily lives. Through interactions with a “coffee recommender” agent, with some unexpected twists, the audience is confronted with the contrast between direct front-end results and opaque back-end processes of machine learning operations.

  • Dual Narratives

    Dual Narratives

    Christian Schwarz (AT), Colas Fiszman (BE), Marcel Top (BE), Bjørn Erik Haugen (NO)

    Dual Narratives explores the dichotomy between personal identity and public perception through an immersive and interactive media experience. The installation directly engages participants, prompting reflection on the nature of digital identity and the impact of social media storytelling.

  • Thigmonastic Specimen 001

    Thigmonastic Specimen 001

    Sebastian Comanescu (RO)

    Kinetic Sculpture. A speculative mechanical symbiote which is fused with a decomposing log. The hybrid casts a critical perspective upon the natural/artificial dichotomy which allows us the comfort of a passive attitude towards the environment.

  • Ourcelium

    Ourcelium

    Marina Oprea (RO)

    Video installation, clay, resin. In the current era, in which human influence is seemingly dominant, an essential reality is often overshadowed by anthropic concerns: the true dominant species of the biosphere is the fungal kingdom.

  • THE GLORIOUS LAMENT 

    THE GLORIOUS LAMENT 

    Ellie Kyungran Heo (KR/GB)

    THE GLORIOUS LAMENT encounters the recumbent body of a fallen tree, which unfolds a stage for new connections and relationships and, thus, new life.
