At OGR Torino Perfect Behaviors. La vita ridisegnata dall’algoritmo a group exhibition curated by Giorgio Olivero.

The exhibition provides a space for exploration of evolving individual and collective conduct in a society where we are perpetually categorized, evaluated, replicated, and reconditioned.

Through June 25, 2023, in Binario 1 and 2 of the former workshops, Perfect Behaviors presents works by Universal Everything (UK), Paolo Cirio (Italy), Eva and Franco Mattes (Italy), Brent Watanabe (US), Geumhyung Jeong (South Korea), and James Bridle (UK) geared toward achieving a common goal: present visitor with alternative narratives to the dominant concept of technological determinism, to help make visible what is invisible, even when it is up close.

In a context where the quantification of everyday life is at the hands of increasingly sophisticated data-collection systems, the exhibition challenges the idea of artificial intelligence as a powerful autonomous creature inside opaque black boxes, emphasizing instead how, behind the tools for measuring interactions, there is always a human being.
