Pitch Deck – Call for the Founding of a New International Party: AGA – Allianz für Gerechtigkeit und Akzeptanz
This artistic project explores the radical idea of a political party dedicated exclusively to representing minorities. Presented as a fictional pitch deck, it delves into the potential and challenges of such an initiative, raising questions about justice, acceptance, and representation in an increasingly polarized world.
A Minority Party would amplify underrepresented voices, address issues like discrimination, accessibility, and equity, and challenge traditional power structures. By uniting diverse groups, it could foster collaboration, societal cohesion, and transformative political innovation. However, the project also examines critical tensions: Can such a party achieve broad societal influence without deepening political fragmentation? How can it maintain coherence and avoid internal or external polarization?
As a symbolic artistic intervention, this work provokes reflection on power, diversity, and the role of minorities in shaping society. Through interactive installations, audiences are invited to engage with these ideas, contributing their perspectives and reconsidering the possibilities and limits of political representation and organization. This project challenges viewers to rethink societal structures and envision new pathways to justice and inclusion.
Pitch Deck – Time Travel Start-Up: Loopliloop, Redefining the Future Through Automated Journeys into the Past
The artwork loopliloop critically examines the ethical and societal risks of modern platforms. Despite promises of security, there is a risk of sensitive personal data being misused. Facial recognition and AI-driven retouching could be employed without users‘ consent. AI-generated modifications distort memories, threatening their authenticity. Over-reliance on platforms to cope with loss or trauma may hinder genuine emotional processing.
Standardized representations and additions to memories jeopardize individual and cultural narratives. Memories and emotions are commodified, monetized, and influenced by advertising. Virtual interactions risk replacing genuine social connections, potentially exacerbating loneliness. Furthermore, AI might generate unpredictable or ethically questionable content, undermining trust in such technologies.
The artwork is presented as a start-up pitch deck composed of promises, financial fantasies, and visionary goals. It also features an interactive installation where visitors can upload their digital memories. These are manipulated by AI, alienated, and shared via channels like a loopliloop website and social media platforms. The aim is to highlight the distortion and commercialization of memories.
The piece encourages critical reflection on the dangers of modern technologies and urges users to handle platforms and personal data more cautiously. It advocates for ethical guidelines in developing such technologies and opposes the monetization of emotions and memories, emphasizing their protection as invaluable, non-commercial aspects of human identity.
