Artificial intelligence is an idea from the past, fascinating and scary at the same time. Artificial intelligence describes the belief in progress, it´s a projection from the

past on a doubtful future, in our imagination artificial intelligence has the potential as

a revolutionary helpful technology and simultaneously it´s the suicide of humankind.

Sound and screen of this video clip deal with artificial intelligence as past, present and future at once. The visuals are projected on a moving surface and show a disruptive scenario, in which progress means substitution. Influenced by the ideas of Hephaestus, Art Deco and Metropolis this video clip demonstrates the hubris of humankind:

The belief in progress up to the potential of a self-processable replacement. But in the end artificial intelligence remains unaffected science fiction, a subject from the past, present and future at the same time.
