![The art and science of our digital selves
An artificial intelligence expert’s theory about a future world where we may need to download our consciousness to the datascape in order for us to survive led Marilène Oliver to ponder what a world like this would be like. She asked herself “If indeed we could download our consciousness to the datascape what would happen to the physical bodies left behind? Or, more worryingly, what kind of consciousness would we have if we had no body?”— it is through these questions that her work using digitized bodies emerged.
The epicenter of Marliène’s work truly is at the intersection of art and science. Her work, digitized bodies created from CT and MRI scans, offers a visual representation of a digitized future. As she explains, “For me, this material [CT scans and MRI scans] offers a fascinating preview of just where we may be headed as we delve deeper and deeper into the interface between human identity and machine created data”.
