Projektbeschreibung

In Star Trek, the replicator is a device capable of creating and recycling objects—from simple meals to intricate non-food items—by assembling them from atomic patterns. Such capabilities, which meet all material needs from food to everyday objects, envision a world where the value of individual items diminishes, leading to a society with obsolete monetary systems and expanded leisure time. This post-scarcity scenario, where every physical need is just a command away, also raises philosophical questions about the nature of 'replicated' versus 'real'.

Drawing inspiration from the replicator, this exhibition presents a series of works that bridge the gap between generative artificial intelligence and material creation. The works emerge from a semester-long investigation into the open-ended and indeterminate future of generative AI applications in physical production. The exhibition features 3D-printed objects and a hologram created using generative AI tools. The works highlight the limitations and complexities of this technology, murky interfaces, and the unpredictable nature of physical production through AI.
