*What they’re saying about UNINVITED:*

‘a newborn networked organism that feeds on human data and keeps evolving
over time through its entanglement with humans and machine learning’
Beth Jochim - Flash Art
<https://furtherfield.us4.list-manage.com/track/click?u=9d227b6380a87c752902c8a55&id=274655e5f6&e=78927ff259>

‘a puzzling, disturbing but strangely seducing work. It rejects human
viewers as much as it draws them in’
Regine Debatty - We Make Money Not Art
<https://furtherfield.us4.list-manage.com/track/click?u=9d227b6380a87c752902c8a55&id=744447d720&e=78927ff259>

'If robots dream of electric sheep, and computers get sick with digital
viruses, do movies for machines feature heroic OSSs'?'
Rosa Menkman
<https://furtherfield.us4.list-manage.com/track/click?u=9d227b6380a87c752902c8a55&id=36e13bf8df&e=78927ff259>

‘are you ready for a digital splatter film?’

By popular demand, we are extending the run of this ground-breaking
collaboration between leading digital artists Nye Thompson (UK) and
UBERMORGEN (AT/CH). This on and offline installation is now an
international sensation that explores what happens when networked
surveillance tools and AI capabilities get sick in the head.

Between and even during lockdowns, Furtherfield Gallery
<https://furtherfield.us4.list-manage.com/track/click?u=9d227b6380a87c752902c8a55&id=c54aa14989&e=78927ff259>
- which features scannable hoarding that reveals what is happening inside -
has been visited (and revisited!) by masses of people. Some major fans of
the work have come multiple times, venturing deep into Finsbury Park, to
sit outside the gallery and watch what is going on inside!

Returning UNINVITED viewers

*UNINVITED is composed of:*


The installations of UNINVITED feature self-evolving networked monsters
inside a mechatronic shell that generate and watch a ‘horror movie’ from
surveillance footage they have collected. Each monster moves across the
empty art gallery on rails, projecting the horror movie onto the wall as it
tries to examine and make sense of it. If fear comes from the unknown - or
the quest for security in an absence of reliable data - then this is pure
fear!

The horror movie these monsters project and pore over is pulled from
streams of closed-circuit TV feeds from all over the planet - taken without
reason or permission by malicious botnets. Together in their networked
mind, they do all they can to understand what they see - analysing harder,
zooming deeper - to no avail. As the monsters try to categorise these
images, the gaps in how it makes sense of data expose how little it
understands of the world around it.

The viewing room allows anyone anywhere to try to watch with their own
machine (a computer, tablet, phone, etc). What we see as the real, physical
world is nothing compared to the world our own watching machines construct
using millions of points of our digital data. We remain alone together in
our looking and always othered in our understanding - and yet with each new
viewing we connect in ways we cannot yet comprehend because You Are
Uninvited!
