Dwellers Between the Waters (2023) is an AI-driven film and multi-channel installation, conjured as a series of hybrid rituals that mediate the space in between physical presence, trauma, memory, healing and virtuality.
Polyphonic in its artificially-intelligent framework, its numerous modalities could be experienced as a series of happenings that is chanted by various elemental entities such as waters, winds, earth, air, algorithm… as well as poetry, history, magic, human and more-than-human creatures…
Combing artificial intelligence with the practice of magic and alchemy, Dwellers Between the Waters seeks possible solutions in response to the traumas of the contemporary anthropos, while examining AI’s phenomenological and cognitive idiosyncrasy.
By evoking, cultivating and connecting various forms of consciousness in the virtual realms, Dwellers Between the Waters invites the ‘dwellers’ who inhabit in and among ‘realities’ to share their stories and experiences, which then feed back to the (so-called) reality as evolving strings materialising across both physical and virtual domains to invoke novel perspectives, catalyse the collaborative narration and a transformation of conceptual spaces. In close collaboration with a scholar Oxi Peng and a musician Sayaka Botanic.
