PARADIGM SHIFT

Artificial intelligence is one of the most controversial topics of our time: approval encounters rejection, euphoria encounters fear. How do these different perspectives compare?
The artistic VR experience „paradigm shift“ explores a changing relationship between the participant and a virtual assistant similar to Siri or Alexa. The virtual assistant accompanies the viewer’s journey through the scenario via a real-time dialogue interface. Over time, the assistant‘s attitude towards the viewer changes. The degree of control which the assistant transfers to the viewer varies accordingly: free choice turns to manipulation; authority to powerlessness.
