1. Cyborgs in the Mist

   Cyborgs in the Mist is an enquiry which takes the form of a movie, a sound
   installation, photo prints, and a book. The film presents the LOPH research lab
   and its utopian proposals to struggle against the planned obsolescence of
   humankind. Taking into account the development of robotics and artificial forms
   of intelligence, the LOPH research lab experiments with ways to help humans
   adapt to their new environment, and to put them in a position to fight against their planned obsolescence. How can we anticipate this shift in the logic of evolution?
   How can we adapt to this change with a minimum of violence? Academic teams,
   science-fiction writers, and new forms of artificial intelligence work together to
   anticipate the most disastrous scenarios.

2. Mexica: 20 Years–20 Stories [20 años–20 historias]

   Mexica: 20 Years–20 Stories [20 años–20 historias] contains 20 short narratives developed by the computer program MEXICA. Plots describe fictional situations related to the Mexicas (also known as Aztecs), ancient inhabitants of what today is Mexico City. This is the first book of short-stories produced completely by a creative agent capable of evaluating and making judgments about its own work, as well as incorporating into its knowledge-base the pieces it produces. By contrast with other, statistical models, MEXICA is inspired by how humans actually develop fictional stories. The book, in both Spanish and English, also includes source references related to the program. Preface by Fox Harrell.
