Installation focuses on AI's power

"Whispering Mountains on the Path to Artificial Happiness" is part of a larger installation, "The Modern Guru on the Path to Artificial Happiness", which has appeared in six different countries. The brainchild of Melbourne-based art and tech studio ENESS, "Whispering Mountains" is being set up in the Town Square, beside The Pavilion. ENESS, led by artist and founder Nimrod Weis, was established in 1997 — its multi-disciplinary team explore the intersection between the virtual and physical world through interactive public art, combining sculpture, textiles, design, furniture, software development, music and story. The exhibition is designed to be a provocation, posing questions about modern digital culture, considering AI is the first technology in the history of humanity capable of writing its own stories. "What does the ominous capacity mean for the future of human cultural output?" a blurb about "Whispering Mountains" says. "Will literature and new religious texts — sources of wisdom throughout history — still bear the mark of human hands, or will AI begin to rewrite the future?" "Whispering Mountains" will be interactive through to mid-evening daily from tomorrow until August 2.
