Kira Xonorika presents their video installation “Deep Space Protocol”. The work challenges the notion of museum collections as static testimonies of the past and engages with the layered histories of the Humboldt Forum. Drawing on Tupi-Guarani perspectives, Kira combines biographical elements, digital technologies, and questions of cultural belonging. In conversation with Felix Fuhg, Kira Xonorika discusses identities and future imaginaries at the intersection of AI, memory, and re-indigenization.
