I am thrilled to be sharing my new performance Inteligencias Artifecales at the Taboo-Transgression-Transcendence in Art & Science conference, in the Upper Foyer in Kino Šiška in Ljubljana, Slovenia.

Disobedient cyborg Praba Pilar investigates the Artifecal Intelligence underlying the hyperreal. In her live performance La Inteligencia Artifecal she metabolizes our taboo, transgressive, and transcendent imaginaries about Artificial Intelligence. Will human-level Artificial General Intelligence (AGI) render our body-selves obsolete? Are we aborting ourselves, or dooming ourselves to a future servicing murderous necro political billionaires? Pilar’s biohazardous body cruises through the erotic fetishizations of this refreshed death drive, and these recycled terrorizing claims about demonically destructive AI power. Can the fecal scat of synthetic intelligence help us transcend the brutal mundanity of daily enshittification?

Pilar has been working with Artifecal Intelligence through research, art residencies, and creative collaborations with AI systems, bioartists, and scientists. She first learned of Arti-fecal logics from a ChatGPT/SunoAI glitch while analyzing the nature/culture divide, leading her to new understandings of LLMs as rectums that pass our deepest metabolized excreta.

The TTT2025 Ljubljana conference remains dedicated to exploring (a) the forbidden and the aesthetics of liminality through art that employs or is inspired by technology and science, and (b) a free and inclusive space for creative, interdisciplinary convergence between science and art.
