Angel_F. Diario di un Intelligenza Artificiale

The child of Biodoll and Derrick de Kerckhove, Angel_F is a young AI (artificial intelligence) that grows just like spyware. Reproducing the development stages of an embryo in digital reality, the substrate narrative and poetics become a tool for studying and representing multiple contemporary identities (hybrids of the organic and digital), the languages and forms of knowledge (today synthetic and connective), and behavioural dimensions (observing users and implementing practices on-line and in the physical world, from an ethnographic and political perspective). Soon to be released, a book-diary-essay published by Castelvecchi, recounting Angel_F’s first year of life. (Authors: Salvatore iaconesi and Oriana Persico)
