The installation Sense Machine, consists sculpture and a video and sound work that jumps
between the sensory worlds of different creatures. Do we know the difference between being an ant and a robot? Can forms of intelligence other than human intelligence help us navigate a world that is both physical
and digital, biological and artificial?
The sculpture among the treetops is as much a UFO as it is an insect – an unidentifiable,
floating sensory apparatus without a body.
Like an echo of the sensory apparatus' impressions, the video work morphs and zaps between different creatures' ways of sensing the world, and together they form a techno-futuristic sensory machine in two parts that opens lines of communication across species and technologies and makes new frequencies of empathy and sympathy possible. In a speculative investigation of different forms of intelligence – from that of the oak tree and the ant to that of the octopus and the machine – Wang & Söderström focus sharply on the common features and connections between the sensory worlds of animals and the new technological sensory systems we are in the process of creating and merging with. Where do our biological sensory apparatus end and where do digital technologies – from GPS and satellites to artificial intelligence – begin in an age where the digital has become intertwined with all aspects of our lives?
