If you're one of those "I don't get art" people, perhaps this is one exhibit that you still might consider giving a try. Artists Przemysław Jasielski and Rainer Prohaska offer an ironic look at technology in combination with the arts and sciences. Presented in the form of interactive objects and installations, the purpose of the exhibit is to demonstrate the creative aspect of invention—and to allow space for the realisation that what is often seen as "new" and "innovative," and may even serve a function—that function can still in and of itself be useless, banal, or—as the artists call it—nonsense. This display is not only an exploration on the origin and process of creativity vs. rational thinking, it's also a commentary on the human-technology relationship—one that the artists urge should be engaged in with caution (especially when it comes to artificial intelligence) as we continue to sidestep the potential dangers our collective everyday dependence holds.
