The Kunstsammlung Nordrhein-Westfalen, Düsseldorf and KW Institute for Contemporary Art, Berlin are pleased to jointly realize an exhibition with the artists and technologists Holly Herndon (*1980 in Johnson City) and Mat Dryhurst (*1984 in Birmingham). The duo is internationally renowned for their work at the intersection of art, music, machine learning and experimental forms of organization.
With Starmirror, they are transforming the exhibition spaces of the two institutions into a training ground for the collaborative production of art and music between humans and artificial intelligence. In collaboration with the architecture firm sub, they are creating an immersive sound installation that simultaneously serves as a recording and listening environment. Visitors are invited to take part in public vocal recordings together with local choirs and under the direction of a vocal ensemble. These form a data set that enables the artists to develop an AI choir. The songbook specially designed for the project is based on the 12th century Benedictine abbess and polymath Hildegard von Bingen's morality play "Ordo Virtutum". In it, a soul must choose between the forces of good and evil. The exhibition makes it possible to experience AI as a collective, humanly co-designed process and sheds light on the invisible role of technical protocols in shaping the world around us.
The exhibition is one of eleven selected projects that the German Federal Cultural Foundation is supporting with its new program "Art & AI - Fund for New Artistic Perspectives on AI and Society".
