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. The Listeners

   The Listeners is a linguistic performance, installation, and Amazon-distributed third-party app or skill – transacted between speakers or speaker-visitors and an Amazon Echo. The Echo embodies a voice-transactive Artificial Intelligence and domestic robot, that is named for its wake-word, Alexa. The Listeners is a custom software skill built on top of this infrastructure. The Listeners have their own interaction model. They listen and speak in their own way – as designed and scripted by the artist – using the distributed, cloud-based voice recognition and synthetic speech of Alexa and her services.
