IMPAKT Festival 2022 | Performance: GOD MODE (EP. 1) by DMSTFCTN ft. HERO IMAGE

An AI destined for deployment in a cashier-less supermarket grows frustrated as it trains endlessly within a simulation – until it finds a bug to cheat its way out. GOD MODE (ep. 1) is an interactive audiovisual performance exploring the use of simulation in artificial intelligence training. Set within a 3D simulation of a supermarket, the performance centres on an AI delivering a monologue on its condition while being trained to recognise items on shelves. The AI character is voiced and animated by artist duo DMSTFCTN in real-time, and accompanied by a soundtrack composed and performed live by artist HERO IMAGE. Throughout the performance, the audience can interact with the simulation and modify the environment using their phone.
