Kellenberger–White were commissioned by Lawrence Lek and Sadie Coles HQ gallery to produce a book for the launch of the ‘AI: More than Human’ arts festival at London’s Barbican Centre. It would translate Lek’s film and installation into printed form. The contents of the book are structured in two parts: first, there is a subtitled walk-through of Lek’s futureworld computer game ‘2065’; then the game is revisited in the form of its installation, originally hosted at the K11 Chi Art Space in Hong Kong in spring 2018.

The contemporary uncanny valley is no longer limited to the image of the humanlike robot or “thinking machine.” It is mapped by the inscrutable calculations of algorithms that are designed to mine and analyze humans’ behavior and project it into tradable futures. It is occupied by our statistical doubles, spread across stacks and reflected back to us in a ceaseless visual montage of hot triggers.

We live in clusters of crises. Whether someone denies it or someone else promotes it, the crisis is our present. The aim of the publication was not to make the crisis a topic. A crisis is a state, and Edith Jeřábková looks at it in the book as an energy, a force that alternately activates and exhausts, motivates and brings anxiety.
