Human vs. Transhuman
Human vs. Transhumanism: Act One is a multimedia performance that delves into the ethical and spiritual dimensions of transhumanism, utilizing live voice improvisation alongside live electronics and fixed media. This performance seamlessly merges real-time audio and visual interactivity, intertwining the sounds of live human voices with electronics. This piece features images generated by the A.I. chatgpt, alongside visuals of robots and transhumans that embody the central theme. In act one, the performance opens with a concise audio-visual introduction to the concept of transhumanism, created with the assistance of AI, followed by an engaging sequence of voice improvisations and singing. At the end of this piece, the absence of the human voice, along with the overpowering cacophony of machine voices, heightens the representation of "singularity.".
