What forms of intelligence are there? What significance do they play in our understanding of ecology and society? The international group exhibition is dedicated to the different forms of intelligence: artificial, technological, but also the organic one of flora and fauna in their interactions within an ecosystem.
The artists involved are investigating what intelligence can be in the age of artificial intelligence (AI) and what other forms of nonhuman intelligence could be relevant in forging our future. They explore how the synthetic brain of an artificial intelligence operates or how organisms from the animal and plant world sense and act, and what we can learn from other such intelligences.
So, what do ChatGPT and the rainforest have in common? Both are currently much discussed social issues. They represent the two areas, namely AI and the climate crisis, whose development will have a radical impact on the future of humanity. They are also representatives of two different, non-human systems of intelligence. In the exhibition we are seeking to examine both these aspects of non-human intelligence, as understanding of and empathy for other forms of intelligence are becoming the most important survival strategies for our species.
Artists: Niculin Barandun, Alice Bucknell, Isabell Bullerschen, CROSSLUCID, Patricia Domínguez, Susanne Hartmann, Joey Holder, Špela Petrič, Sookyun Yang, Yiming Yang
Curators: Sabine Himmelsbach, Marlene Wenger
