“The human brain is both a source of inspiration and an instrument for AI development.”, defines the creative Rodrigo Franco, from Oyster Studio.
The Machine Revolution
right on the terrace, the public will have contact with the Cérebro-Luz installation, a giant bust of 8 meters high which is an invitation to reflection. Visitors will be able to enter and see from the bottom up a huge illuminated brain that serves as a source for the creation of artificial intelligence.
Continuing the exhibition, a staircase will display the main milestones of AI development starting with the movie “Metropolis”, masterpiece by German filmmaker Friz Lang, released in 1927 and which is considered the first science fiction film in cinema. The timeline will show how the 20th and 21st centuries were important for the progress of humanity through artificial intelligence. along the stairs, the public will find informational totems that, in addition to serving as a resting point, will explain what intelligence is and how it put man at the top of the chain in the animal kingdom and how the data, self-created, fuel AI and advance technology.
After finding out about the starting point for the creation of studies in artificial intelligence, visitors will find an immersive room, inspired by the concept of panopticon, by the French philosopher Michel Foucault. Her, it will be possible to participate in a game that tests knowledge and, at the same time, everyone will be watched by cameras, a mix of purposeful exposure and constant surveillance. In it the phrase "Smile, you're being filmed” will make perfect sense!
in the next moment, the audience will be guided to a room that will reference the scene at the subway station, do filme “Matrix”, directed by sisters Lily and Lana Wachowski. Her, it will be possible to have free will and face the consequences between choosing a utopian or dystopian future. In the next section, people will be co-authors of the future by generating data in the present. An interactive game will be proposed that will discuss ethical issues related to autonomous cars, making society think decisions together.
The Campo Minado environment will lead to reflection on the risks of lack of control over this technology. The floor will be designed with small explosions and ripples that will simulate a war environment. In it, there will be emblematic references to the films “Ex Machina”, “Her”, "2001 — A Space Odyssey" and "The Terminator". In the center of the room, will have a button and, in case someone triggers, the sirens will be turned on, changing room lighting.
The last space will bring the following question: "In the end, what is it to be human?”. Her, the exhibition invites the public to think about it., through an immersive experience with a motion sensor and luminescence projection. It will be possible to see the aura of people simulated through human warmth.
