UNTOLD: Redefining Art with AI-Driven Emotional Data at Kinomural Festival
Kinomural, a unique celebration of new media art, transforms Wroclaw’s urban landscape into an open-air gallery, with giant screens projected onto tenement buildings. Taking place on 19 and 20 October, this year’s event promises an exciting and immersive experience across two nights, featuring a wide range of international artists. The festival showcases the best of moving murals, video art, audio-visual installations, and experimental cinema, offering a dynamic exploration of the intersection of technology and art.
The theme of this year’s Kinomural festival, “Fables for Robots,” highlights the fusion of advanced technologies and creative storytelling. Artists use AI, 3D technology, and intricate algorithms to create stunning visual pieces that push the boundaries of digital art. From abstract animations depicting the ‘thinking’ processes of AI to geometric representations of data, the festival’s works reflect the future of human-machine relationships. This exploration of artificial intelligence and robotic emotions offers a deep philosophical inquiry into the potential evolution of intelligent machines and their interactions with humanity.
This year’s festival introduces groundbreaking work UNTOLD, directed by Anderson Tegon and presented by Pepper’s Ghost. This piece harnesses brainwave data to create a dynamic, data-driven visual representation of human emotions. Using advanced AI technology, the piece captures and visualizes the unseen depths of human feelings, converting intangible emotions into a vibrant and fluid art form.
This fusion of AI and emotional data offers a unique reflection on the complexities of human consciousness, bringing to the forefront emotions that are often difficult to express. As the emotions are translated into dynamic visual patterns, the audience is invited to explore their own emotional landscapes, creating a personal connection to the artwork.
What makes UNTOLD especially compelling is its ability to challenge conventional boundaries between art, technology, and human existence. By turning emotions into data-driven visuals, the piece opens up new possibilities for how we understand and engage with both art and technology. The immersive experience brings to life the hidden layers of human feeling, making the invisible visible and offering a rare opportunity to witness how technology can interpret the most intimate aspects of our existence.
