Read MoreNEW INC and EY Metaverse Lab proudly present two multimedia installations at Onassis ONX, developed during the collaboration’s artists-in-residence program. The initiative brings together artists and technologists to explore challenges and issues affecting humanity today. This year’s program features artists Laura Splan and Eva Daidova. Splan is developing Metafrictions, a work that examines new epistemologies emerging alongside notions of the metaverse and the cognitive impact immersive digital worlds may have on top of embodied experiences. Daidova will present Audience as Virus, a performance dependent on audience participation as it examines the current limitations of AI’s predictive abilities. Both artists’ works raise awareness of technology’s growing homogeneity—its effects on humanity and creative attempts to break free.

Read MoreRhizome is pleased to announce a new workshop, "Signal Representation Theory for Artists," taught by Max Ardito. Implicit in generative AI, computer software, programming languages, hardware, and data itself, lies an unspoken ideology to which we consent as both artists and consumers: that of signal representation. Signal representation theory is a field that is concerned with the representation of real-world phenomena—language, image, sound—through ideas and structures in pure mathematics. Signal representations are depictions of the world, no different than paintings, poetry, or sheet music.
