Notes on the Afterlife is a four day exhibition speculating on the afterlife and the artificial, hosted by
Salonul de proiecte, within the frame of Rokolectiv Festival.
Inspired by galvanism and Frankenstein, Amy Whittle brings a personal interpretation of technology and spirituality coming together in a post-life construct. Chatonsky takes on the physicality of the Internet trough a sort of meta-server-heaven, while Chinese artist Lu Yang creates a digital nonsexual human simulator in her own shape and imagines its digital funeral. In a more radical approach, the Iranian/American artist duo Morehshin Allahyari & Daniel Rourke, with their 3D Additivist Manifesto, call to push additive manufacturing technologies to their absolute limits and beyond, into the realm of the speculative, the provocative and the weird. A meaningless app. (AI SCRY) push the artificial intelligence use to the absurd, while Nona Inescu's Echo installation challenges the human’s personal space trough snail shells connected by sound.
