Bivalves are two jaws, two worlds that connect, that influence each other. What one dreams of is said to be the unattainable, the fantasy. Reality as its antonym. Not to mention that these two worlds, these two shell halves, are always linked by wiring. We dream of what we think, of what we don’t know or think, but we think about, what we journey through, what we yearn for. We dream of tenderness and also of nightmares. But what becomes of dreams when the reality dug up is fictitious?

In this first part of a series of audio-visual installations, video artist Eli Cortiñas shows humanoid robots, avatars, and chatbots engaging in monologs about the troubles of our times. We listen to their thoughts and concerns, wondering where their words come from. Do they originate from our collective consciousness, which inevitably runs through their engines? While scientists debate the potential for consciousness in A.I. and robotics, Cortiñas raises the question: are these beings capable of more humanity than humans? Throughout the work, she challenges technology’s influence on our behavior and its reinforcement of human biases. She offers no easy answers. At the same time, Cortiñas' work speaks to our human ability to share stories and shift narratives toward new paths. Using intricate montage, humor and joy as tools for resistance and critical reflection, she encourages us to rethink the material and virtual reality of our existence and the humanity that underlies it.
