Exhibited Work: 'Twelve Nodes' video documentation
Duration: 04.09–27.09.2020
Event type: Group show
Curators: Helena Nikonole, Olga Vad
Organizer: Ars Electronica
Venue: Moscow, Russia
For many Post-Soviet countries, digitalisation is proclaimed one of the main important national priorities, however, the local context transforms the understanding and implementation of digital tools in its own way. The project aims to present several generations of new media artists from post-Soviet countries. It is dedicated to the artistic exploration of the boundaries between digital and physical spaces and the whole spectrum of phenomena and consequences of the implementations of algorithmic regulation and control tools in the local context.

A critical and technical exploration of the capacities of AI models to reconstruct missing fragments of objects from classical antiquity and generate synthetic historical documents carved in stone. This work questions the epistemological qualities of AI-accelerated historiography, akin to 'reverse archaeology'.
