The I’m sorry, I didn’t quite catch that group exhibition at London’s Arebyte Gallery opened March 22 and ran to April 5.
Curated by Bob Bicknell-Knight of isthisit? (a platform which hosts online and offline exhibitions, residencies and publications) and in collaboration with arebyte, the show features work by !Mediengruppe Bitnik, Anne De Boer, Bora Akinciturk, Dominic Dispirito, Emma Stern, Harm van den Dorpel, Iain Ball, Jakob Kudsk Steensen, Marie Munk, Olga Fedorova, Sarah Derat & Rachel McRae, Stephan Backes, Stine Deja and Yuri Pattison.
The curatorial premise brings artists together whose work concerns “automated empathy, new age philosophy, digital death and the rise of artificial intelligence in contemporary society.” Accompanying the event was also the launch of isthisit?’s 4th issue of essays, interviews and features speculating on “the complications and assumptions surrounding AI, the automation of work and the corporatization of an unknown future.”**
