AS PART OF THE CHANTIER IA, SPOROBOLE WELCOMES FRÉDÉRIC MAHEUX FOR A RESEARCH AND CREATIVE RESIDENCY ON THE TOOLS AND CHALLENGES OF ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE.
This short residency will last four weeks.
Cyborg Tarot is a generator of mutant tarot cards. The tarot is considered here as an android that exposes how bodies and technical devices amplify, contaminate, and alter one another. This project seeks to deepen the speculative potentials of tarot as defined by the Italian technoccultist organization, Gruppo di nun: “Tarot brings to light the idea that the cosmos is a cybernetic organism in a continuous process of recombination”. The project aims to transform the current prototype into a physical installation that the public could interact with, making Cyborg Tarot an embodied entity that metamorphoses through its encounters.
