         <title>PSYCHE SYNOPSIS</title>
         <author>blackwellryan1</author>

         <description><![CDATA[<div><strong>SYNOPSIS:</strong></div><div><strong><em>Psyche</em></strong><strong> explores the uncanny nature of the digital sphere by injecting it into the physical world. The complex algorithmic processes that make up the digital sphere are often masked by comforting user interfaces and speech synthesis mimicking the human form. This representation that we identify as ‘the internet' can quickly fall into the uncanny valley when questioning what processes lurk beneath this pleasurable aesthetic which users engage with. Psyche contextualises the fear of digital exposure through a hyperrealist personification of a computer vision algorithm if it were some kind of 80s horror monster. Using a generative video manipulation method, artificial subjects are projected onto synthetic plastics and step foot into the real world.</strong></div><div><br></div><div>In 21st century western society, it is seemingly impossible not to adopt digital technology for the majority of social communication, information sourcing, and entertainment. Now the first generation of people who don’t know a world without internet have reached adulthood. As we become increasingly reliant on such a way of existing, the internet continues to become a comforting extension of our collective and individual psyche in day-to-day life. The internet’s growing impact on society raises many fears; doxxing, hacking, fraud, stalkers, polarised political forces and so much more. <em>Psyche</em> confronts the viewer by bringing this tech monster into the physical world, the digital sphere falls into the uncanny valley by questioning our individual safety from this monster which knows more about us, than we do of it. </div><div><br></div><div><strong>TEAM:</strong></div><div><strong>Ryan Blackwell: Director</strong></div><div><strong>Aleksi Haltunnen: Creative Coder</strong></div><div><strong>Joseph Scalera: Sound Design</strong></div><div><strong>Ganesha Lock Hart: Cast</strong></div><div><strong>Alina zum Hebel: Cast</strong></div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>Heidegger draws attention to technology's place in bringing about our decline by constricting our experience of things as they are. He argues that we now view nature, and increasingly human beings too, only technologically - that is, we see nature and people only as raw material for technical operations. Heidegger seeks to illuminate this phenomenon and to find a way of thinking by which we might be saved from its controlling power, to which, he believes, modern civilisation both in the communist East and the democratic West has been shackled. We might escape this bondage, Heidegger argues, not by rejecting technology, but by perceiving its danger.</div>]]></description>
