Hybrid entities -mix between artificial intelligence and organic life- inhabit a cyberspace that grows between roots and fungi. These entities imagine their human past through the distorted manipulation of memes from our cultures and subcultures, which float like fruits of nature in the dream of an alien mind.

We were humanity

The series "Donde sueñan los memes" (Where memes dream) consists of short moments captured from a video game of the same name, in which we navigate generative environments populated by entities endowed with artificial intelligence.
The owner of this NFT has access to the game, which will only be available in this format. (Windows required. NVIDIA GTX 1050 or better video card recommended)

Donde sueñan los memes 1

Éramos la humanidad (We were humanity) is an audiovisual project by Mateo Amaral and Joan Sol Roo that imagines a post-human future, using artificial intelligence and real-time 3D rendering engines. In this future, the Entities (hybrid beings resulting of the mix of artificial intelligence and organic life) inhabit a natural cyberspace among relics of our civilization.

The WWH assets arise from an exhibition held in the Andreani Foundation space (Buenos Aires) The pieces are captured from the software that runs in the installation. Similar to a video game that plays itself, this software creates infinite variations of a virtual ecosystem from the combination of different elements and then populates those environments with characters equipped with artificial intelligence.

Listening is a perception that is often left behind in artistic circuits and industries. Since the 1970s when sound art appeared as a separate discipline, different strategies were used to make sound and listening exercises more notorious or conscious. Even though these strategies helped to put sound on stage (music, noise, and various compositions), it has other means of distribution, separate from visual art. Today we also find an NFT circuit that has relegated the audio to silence in a similar way to the platforms in which we access content (like social media, streaming platforms, and video games). Although there is a level of concern around this situation, the sound still seems to be put in second place: it is turned off by default.

Listening is a highly charged emotional experience, operating in that part of a symbolic field that we are not prepared to approach. What exactly do we miss when we forget to turn on the sound of an artwork? Can this aspect of the crypto art reveal something about our modernity? How does this particular sound look like?

This selection of tokenized artworks allows us to see and listen at the same time. Here we look at the aesthetic climate of a region, exploring artistic strategies between digital and discursive tools created to express ideas and feelings through sound.
