BarcelonaThe Barcelona artist Alicia Framis presented this Tuesday the AILex, the artificial intelligence with which he will marry during a ceremony that will be held in the summer at the museum Depot Boijmans Van Beuningen in Rotterdam (Holland). It will be the first marriage between a woman and an AI hologram, which will be profiled based on Framis’ previous relationships. According to the statement made public this Tuesday, it is “a historic event that opens the doors to new horizons in contemporary art”. Framis herself is working on the costume design and guest list.
The wedding is part of The hybrid couple, a new multidisciplinary project that Framis has conceived “as a series of performances that redefine the limits of interaction between humans and AI from a female perspective, beyond heteronormative conventions.” Thus, Framis will henceforth share her life and emotions with this particular entity of artificial intelligence in form of interactive holographic sculpture, and this will allow him to address contemporary issues such as “posthumanism and virtuality.” “Ultimately, this is a disruptive exploration of human relationships at the intersection of art and technology,” the statement also says.
A “molecular” banquet
The wedding banquet will live up to the project: Framis is creating with the LAM Museum, the food art museum in Holland, a sensory experience consisting of a “molecular banquet designed to satisfy both humans and the family politics of holograms”. And with the collaboration of the Rabobank Art Collection, Alicia Framis is also exploring the possibility of taking out the first life insurance for holograms, as well as the first mortgage for the acquisition of a house specifically designed for coexistence harmony between holograms and humans.
After the ceremony, The hybrid couple will embark on an international journey, which audiences around the world will be able to follow through various platforms.
