In The Oracle Surface, the participant, wearing an HMD, interacts with an AI waiter and points to a menu to place an order. Physically, the “menu” is a mirror. Through the HMD, it appears as a digital interface, but to outside observers, the participant seems to be staring into a mirror, changing facial expressions in strange ways. This gap between internal perception and external appearance creates humorous tension, exposing how acts of “choice” may appear absurd when viewed from the outside.
