Other Spring explores the societal implications of computational mediation, automation and AI. It challenges the dominant notions of efficiency and precision in our information society by embracing “heretical computing”. Set in a speculative future controlled by the algorithmic network UNO, the project reflects on privacy, agency and individuality. It urges a humane approach to technology, encouraging dialog and emphasizing the importance of these issues in our interconnected world.
