The contents of the knowledge base were selected by Peter Weibel based on the exhibition »Renaissance 3.0« and his long-lasting interest in the productive connections between art and science. In the spirit of an alliance between humans and machines, the short texts were written with the help of Chat GPT (Generative Pre-trained Transformer) – an artificial intelligence. Throughout the duration of the exhibition, more terms and further explanations are being added.
The interactive knowledge base is inspired by the idea of a digital library or a giant book that visitors can enter and explore new concepts. As an artistic project, it visualizes the diversity and vastness of the continuously growing body of knowledge – and the fact that it is impossible to capture all at once. The images and short German-language explanations that make up the contents of the knowledge base are oriented along the concepts, works, and tools of the exhibition.
