Audience as Virus by Eva Davidova is part of the exhibition HOUSE OF LEARNING SYSTEMS. This interactive performance installation invites the audience to disrupt AI predictions through unpredictable movements, exploring creative deviations and glitches as forms of expression.
Developed in collaboration with Danielle McPhatter with EY Intelligent Realities Lab and Vinson Fraley, the installation is activated by Lucie Strecker and students from the Angewandte Performance Laboratory (APL):
Carolina Cappelli, Ines Enzendorfer, Leonie Fritsch, Aleksandar Grabovski, Helene Hochrieser, Anouk Lucas, lisa maresch, Arina Nekliudova, Uros Paunković, Flora Schreiber, Mehrta Shirzadian, Miriam S. Surányi.
To conclude the exhibition HOUSE OF LEARNING SYSTEMS, artist, composer, and educator Matthew D. Gantt—who specializes in sound in virtual spaces—will conduct experiments with the system within Davidova’s installation. Gantt is a long-time collaborator of Davidova and contributed the sound components of the work.
