revealing its self-consuming origins in extraction of the earth’s resources and data through relics, artifacts and stories from the past...

type in a query at the main station, and a local language model determines your location within the landscape. your query dynamically breathes life into this generative digital biome and sets the scene of the exhibition….

the environment is inhabited by cyber sculptures .... the deity that resonates with your query will awaken in response, sharing their knowledge, fighting dominant imaginaries and narratives entangled within the origins of AI touching upon: mystification, gender bias, non-western algorithmic practices, the ecological footprint and labor …
