Learning About Humanity

Artificial intelligence in the work learns text data containing human’s food recipe, and creates new recipes based on that. Unhappy Circuit displays a live performance of making real food out of a recipe created by artificial intelligence. At the same time, the process in which artificial intelligence learns is conveyed to the audience through audio vidualization. In particular, artificial intelligence metaphorically expresses human’s carnivorous culture through new meat food made by artificial intelligence. Unhappy Circuit encompasses digital media experiment art, science and engineering areas with the center of computer algorithm music. In addition, by combining and expanding boundaries of various media and technologies, it agonizes over new human beings of the coming future.
