Human thought is multidimensional, Apart from yes and no we calculate the maybes and maybe nots, we have the power to ponder over ifs and buts, and we can decide between the better and the best amongst the worst. As artists we wanted to investigate the deductive process of dialectics, potentially unraveling the hidden dimensions of rationality with regard to the indefinite developments in the science of artificial intelligence where the sole aim is to duplicate what exists as mortal in humanity. The pattern inhabits an impossible future that incorporates the probabilities of thought dimensions depicted as impulses of reasoning through machines and algorithms. In this installation, we have used multiple glasses symbolizing the possible 3D layers of rationale. The artwork on it expresses the impact of technological advancement on human anatomy and its impression on our perception as a union. The installation highlights the looming impact of technology on us and our civilization. Our artistic pursuit is to identify Artificial Intelligence as creating a ghost around us, everything that we do on a screen is documented as a digital us, It’s a copy. The light shown on the installation is inspired by Plato’s Tripartite theory of Soul in ‘The Republic’ around 380BC in which he propagates that both the human psyche and the society consist of these three parts. The first layer comprises the logic which seeks validity and is swayed by facts and arguments. Its conception as a map of our brain is a deliberate attempt to express the intricate details and complex network required to process the information. The second layer is anatomic yet spirited, it stresses the sensitivity of the emotional impulse and how our actions are fueled by our feelings. The third layer is .appetite, the physical desires that drive us into worldly pleasures and presents a case for vanity. The light source represents the intelligence that is imaginatively artificial.
