Our interactive, multimedia installation will be shown at the exhibition „Rivers of Information and Mountains of Data / 1000 GB gór i rzek” open from 13 September to 15 September 2024.​

 

"On The Existence of Self-Identity" is an interactive installation that touches on the problem of the origin of our personality. With the increase in migration and the associated interactions between different cultures, many of us have started to ponder our own cultural identity. Interacting with those who hold different values offers a fresh perspective on our beliefs, paradoxically aiding in self-understanding like a mirror revealing what we have overlooked. Is one’s self-identity a matter of choice or chance? To what extent does experience shape our ego versus our inherent self? If it is solely about exposure on data, what sets us apart from AI models? How do politicians use technology and art to affect our way of thinking?
We enable every participant of our exhibition to consider these questions individually. Thus, we provide them an opportunity to talk to a projection of themselves, speaking in their own voice, underneath which is an AI endowed with knowledge gathered from philosophical and religious writings.
