How do we remember the Palace of the Republic? And can these memories be expanded through alternative narratives of a fictional past and future? These questions are at the centre of the installation \u2018Palace of Memory. The Power of Images<\/a>\u2019 by the artist duo CyberR\u00e4uber.<\/p>\n

In the room next to the special exhibition \u2018Blown away. The Palace of the Republic<\/a>\u2019, expansive video projections and a mixed reality experience show images of a palace that never existed. These images were generated with the help of artificial neural networks. This demonstrates the creative possibilities of artificial intelligence, which creates alternative ideas and narratives. The memories, scenes or short stories about the Palace of the Republic left by visitors on pieces of paper or via a telephone also serve as inspiration for the creation of new images. In this way, new visions of a possible past, present or future of a fictitious palace are constantly being created.<\/p>\n

At SP\u00c4TI, you can experience the mixed reality installation and learn more about artificial intelligence, its new visual worlds<\/p>\n

The musical design of this evening is also characterised by artificial intelligence. Using the innovative instrument Eko, the digitised recordings from the Ethnological Museum’s archive are reinterpreted in a fascinating way. The core of the original recordings remains unchanged: Eko analyses the music for its essential elements, places them in a new context and creates an automated \u2018echo\u2019 – a new interpretation that develops directly from the original recordings. Based on the tradition of call and response, completely new sounds are created.<\/p>\n

What does this echo sound like? You can experience it live! Sound artist Hannes Fritsch makes Eko sound and is on hand to answer any questions.<\/p>\n
