Biography
An artist collective (est. 2018) that engages in highly collaborative cross-disciplinary projects in co-evolution with technology. Their work and research converges around the exploration of the self as a network; intimacy and the potential for pleasurable actualization through the digital sphere, and the re-imagination of our alliances with technology seen as part of a sympoietic biosphere and universal post-material consciousness. Through explorations spanning filmmaking, poetic Artificial Intelligence, multi-layered techniques of collage, assemblage and experience-led interventions they create scenarios and build experiential formats that instigate prototyping and rehearsing potential futures and progressing metamodern values.

Focus on:
"This opening piece - created in response to the first transmissions of Oceanic Whispers' agent - challenges traditional human vs.nature divides by revealing the ocean as a complex sensorium - that transcends binary classifications. The work maps the blurred boundaries between technology, ecology and governance and establishes how the same technologies that helped us map and exploit the seas now offer possibilities for radical reimagining of our relationship with marine spaces - not as resources to be divided, but as fluid systems demanding adaptive, decolonial approaches to collective care and environmental stewardship. Oceanic Whispers is a data-driven interactive installation exploring new models of ecological stewardship around Marine Protected Areas. The project combines live AI, intra-active environments, and innovative governance structures to transform complex marine data into meaningful narratives about ocean conservation." — CROSSLUCID
