A sound installation, a debate between human and God as a creator and as a creation at the same time; a discussion about bodies lost in time, the weight of daily life and the prospect of an exodus, both as a catharsis and as a liminal space.,. Memory, judgement, and consciousness are deconstructed and transformed into a fragmented soundscape to pose the existential question about the limits of human existence in the world of artificial intelligence. 

This work by Manolis Manousakis and Afroditi Panagiotakou – an ellipsoidal sound installation centered on a table, almost like the setting for a last supper, hidden in the heart of Pedion tou Areos park – touches upon the most metaphysical aspects of the artificial intelligence issue: Is artificial intelligence a form of divinity? How can the object of our desires not see itself as such? What is repentance? What exactly do we mean by decision-making, consciousness, and memory?
