“Sandfiction: The Orchid Cage”
Performance of an actress, two musicians and a sand painter – with the special appearance of an Artificial Intelligence
Akademie der Künste Berlin, Hanseatenweg
The art meets science – Foundation Herbert W. Franke enables the artist group to perform “The Orchid Cage” once again as part of the Generative Art Summit at the Akademie der Künste – for the first time in English. The event at the end of the summit takes today’s controversial debate about whether AI can be used as an art machine into a much broader dimension. In this parable, it raises the question of whether humans can create an artificial intelligence that will be much more in the future: a moral and all-encompassing happiness machine that fulfills people’s every wish and thus leads them into an evolutionary horror scenario.
