SKU Market
What does an algorithm think about who you are? SKU-Market is a small, satirical marketplace that explores how your digital habits are interpreted, biased, and used to shape your life in unexpected ways. You visit our algorithmic section and 'buy' the products you like. The section is lined with products that give you 'life,' such as human rights players, daily horoscope apps, virtual reality headsets, pink bamboo toilet paper, and more. After making your purchase, you receive a receipt on your phone to see how the algorithm interpreted what you bought, creating a living image of who you are. At SKU, we go above and beyond for our buyers, as you can also expect an exclusive offer from our Third-Party Partners. But beware! You might not like what SKU Market thinks about you.

CROSSLUCID
CROSSLUCID
CROSSLUCID is an artist collective (founded in 2018) dedicated to highly collaborative, multidisciplinary projects in co-evolution with technology. Their work and research converge around the exploration of the self as a network; intimacy and the potential for pleasurable actualization through the digital sphere; and the reimagining of our alliances with technology as part of a sympoietic biosphere and post-material universal consciousness. Through explorations ranging from filmmaking to poetic artificial intelligence, multi-layered collage techniques, assemblage, and experience-based interventions, they create experiential scenarios and formats that instigate the prototyping and experimentation of potential futures, as well as the progression of metamodern values. His work has been exhibited and presented at the Shanghai Architecture Biennale / MetaCity (2023-2024), iMAL (2022), Vellum LA (2022, 2023), EPOCH.Gallery (2023), the Osaka Museum of Fine Arts (2022), Francisco Carolinum Linz (2023), Expanded.Art (2023), the Art Encounters Biennale (2023), the MuseumsQuartier Wien (2023-2024), the Museum of Contemporary Art Zagreb (2023), arebyte London (2023), Chronus Art Center Shanghai (2023), the Artificial Intelligence Biennale Germany (2022), NOWNESS (2021), Google Arts & Culture (2021), the incorrect biennale (2024), Garage Rotterdam (2023), Art Basel Miami (2022), Lobkowicz Palace (2022), and ARD Culture (2022), among others.
