About the Exhibition
The "fffluid apparatus" of the exhibition title may be applied to different systems of thinking and operating – a human body, a musical instrument, a computer; a natural ecosystem, artificial intelligence; a geopolitical entity; or an art exhibition.
As an exhibition, fffluid apparatus thinks along different forms of intelligence and where they might meet, as we face present crises and future imaginaries. It has been put together by a small team of human art workers, plugged into and dependent on machine technology – hardware and software, virtual systems, online connectivity, the algorithms that drive social media. The curators have used AI assistants as a sounding board for our queries and ideas. Microsoft’s Bing Chat offered the following description of the exhibition concept:
fffluid apparatus investigates/explores/critiques the complexity of social, cultural mediation, and computational systems, and ultimately with ecological and planetary concerns. It foregrounds the flowing, dynamic, shifting, flexible, adaptive, multifaceted, resilient characteristics of human and non-human interaction and entanglement. The themes of the artworks and project include the (post/non-)human condition, technics of temporal-spatial imagination, and the performative (ceremonial, ritualistic).
