This haptic light sculpture titled bI/Onics invites reflection on the essence of being. Through touch and a personalized app, visitors explore how lifestyle, genetics, and tech shape the brain and self. As users build augmented “other selves,” a collective dialogue emerges, raising metaphysical questions about identity, agency, and our bionic future. In the face of rapid change, panic emerges from the blurred line between human and machine, sparking ethical and existential questions.
