Artist Lawrence Lek sends self-driving cars to therapy with Guanyin in new exhibition https://t.co/1cOok0sj5F

[vernissagetv @vernissagetv]

Lawrence Lek: NOX Pavilion / The Bass Museum of Art, Miami Beach. Lawrence Lek is a London-based artist who creates films, video games, and installations to explore a near-future where AI and self-driving cars have feelings, memories, and personal crises.His ongoing project NOX is a creepy “therapy center” run by a mega-corporation (Farsight) that treats sentient vehicles for anxiety, distraction, and breakdowns—only to get them back to work faster. Care is just another word for control. At The Bass museum, the show NOX Pavilion turns two galleries into this fictional world. You watch a three-channel film about Enigma-76, a delivery truck in therapy with an AI “carebot” named Guanyin. There’s memories and desires clash with its programming. Other pieces let you play as a burned-out corporate therapist or watch a smiling crash-test dummy pitch you as the “sponsor” of Enigma’s treatment.A gray-tiled pavilion you can actually sit in appears both in real life and inside Lek’s virtual city, blurring the line between his story and ours. The whole show asks: if machines start suffering like we do, who decides what their lives are worth?

Lawrence Lek’s 'Nepenthe' remakes a neon echo of the destroyed Summer Palace of Beijing as an exploratory video game world. Quest-markers speak of ghost builders, loss, rebirth and forgetting. https://t.co/IamtXiBETm

@cyberdogalex Feature! (Short feature but still counts)

[Lawrence Lek @Sinofuturism]

@matdryhurst https://t.co/cnAQOnPuVt coming soon

[Lawrence Lek @Sinofuturism]

@cyberdogalex I get you, yeah it's both formally more normie (courtroom genre) and also partly cause it stems from my PhD research about nonhuman rights and ethics (*you need a hypothesis / argument in that framework). So with the NOX film I'm going the opposite way into the unknown

[Lawrence Lek @Sinofuturism]

@cyberdogalex Working on it now but it'll be a weird one

[Lawrence Lek @Sinofuturism]

@cyberdogalex Got it. Between those two is actually another work called NOX, so Empty Rider doesnt make sense without it. So the Smart City series is:

Theta (aka Black Cloud*)
NOX
Empty Rider

*an earlier edit

[Lawrence Lek @Sinofuturism]

@cyberdogalex Damn you mean the 30min edit of Death Drive from 2021? That was just a PhD submission that nobody was meant to see
