Data's Inferno

Another project realized in the context of Elevate Arts is an impressive installation exhibited in the now disused Schlossberg tunnels. “Data's Inferno” is an immersive procession through a digital reinterpretation of Dante's Nine Circles of Hell. “Each station reveals a modern crisis of confidence that intensifies with each circle,” reads the press release for the installation by Grammy-nominated Austrian new media artist and creative director Berit Gwendolyn Gilma and NYC-based architectural designer and interdisciplinary artist Andreas Palfinger. The jointly conceived installation transforms input data into 3D sculptures and holograms, demonstrating how digital systems spread misinformation and how user trust is in crisis as a result.
