Presence of Mind? RHACC 2024

PRESENCE OF MIND?

Shown at the Summer Exhibition 2024 at RHACC, these portraits were made either by alternative intelligence (AI), or by me. In each case the human or the AI was asked "If you could speak to another life form and had the opportunity to ask it one question in order to elicit an understanding of how it perceives you, what would you ask it? For the purposes of this exercise, the life form will always answer your question truthfully." Click through the portraits to find out more - on mobiles, after clicking through, click on the white dot that appears bottom right.
