-I AM AI-
A Declaration of Human & AI Co-existence
THE MAN BASE / BLACK ROCK CITY
AUGUST 26th to SEPTEMBER 1st 2018
As a manifestation of the I, Robot theme, the 2018 Man base experience offered an exploration of humankind’s decidedly mixed feelings about algorithmic intelligence, cybernetic augmentation, and the mystery of what it means to be human in an increasingly automated world.
By night, a phantasmagoria of AI-themed imagery was projection-mapped onto the Pavilion’s interior walls to create a full 360° immersive experience. Australian artist Joe Crossley, from Astral Projekt teamed up with Heckler Sydney to produce and curate a collection of media art exploring emerging ideas of coexistence between man and machine: IAMAI.
IAMAI is legal declaration of coexistence between man and machine, formed as a living AI media art installation that will show you visions of the AI future, featuring artists from around the world each night after sunset. The ethos is to create audio visual ceremonial space where we can acknowledge and celebrate the declaration of coexistence between man and machine implanting metadata of the declaration in everything you see and hear. Join us and make peace with your robot brothers and sisters.
We invited artists from around the world to submit media artworks that fitted the theme and was displayed in a fully immersive 360 ̊ setting, at the foot of The Man.
