Perforum – Doirrean O’Malley Artist’s Talk

Doireann O’Malley / Conversations On A Crosstown Algorithm
Artist Talk

Conversations On A Crosstown Algorithm is an immersive CGI video installation exploring new forms of queer subjectivity and their entanglements with data economy, artificial intelligence, identity politics – this post human fiction probes us to reconsider the relationship between nature and technology at a time of simultaneous crises. Set within the visions and memories of a diverse group of queer people who find themselves trapped in a virtual environment, where they are trying to regain the pre-colonial, pre-capitalist lost memories and rituals while simultaneously trying to awaken their frozen comrades who are trapped within the glitches of human behavioral dysfunction.
