Null Void 0

"Null Void 0" is an augmented reality and artificial intelligence artwork based on a real marble sculpture. The AR-AI artwork is a sort of 'impossible puzzle' where the audience is called to play a game within the intent of reconstructing the real sculpture. Audience by tapping on the screen, generates the solids which compose the sculpture. Each piece can be scaled, translated and rotated while emitting an AI (random generated) phrase which speculates on the computer vision practice and the object-recognizes AI model. In fact, most of the time, the AI won't recognize the part of the sculpture, causing unexpected and weird shifts of meanings. The game also permits the audience to build their own abstract sculpture according to a personal taste. "Null Void 0” invites the audience to challenge the concept of what is considered sculpture nowadays, by exploring the liminal duality between tangible and virtual.
