INTERVIEW :: dmstfctn AND EVITA MANJI :: WALUIGI’S PURGATORY BY COEVAL MAGAZINE

Coeval Magazine has published an interesting interview with dmstfctn and Evita Manji to discuss the performance a few days after its premiere in London curated and produced by Serpentine Arts Technologies and HQI.

“This work is different compared to the first episode, which was trying to be more didactic. In our previous episode, humans were part of a complex system, and were literally a machine learning technique, and therefore, hopefully would have understood something technical about AI. This second episode, Waluigi’s Purgatory, does not try to explain anything in particular, it literally leans into what could be a dream of an AI. It almost operates as a counter-myth or just yet-another-myth added to the canon of discussion around AI. So not demystification in a myth-busting sense, but it’s totally mythologising.”
