A collaboration of Claire Silver and James Fox and first place winning submission of the Ephimera “It’s A New World” Contest What visions of identity will we clothe ourselves with in a transhumanist world? What stories are still important? The past, present, and future of our collective cultural identity are represented here by an early art nouveau lithograph, a face created collaboratively with Artificial Intelligence, and macro paint photography— as the hidden world, the abstracted “qualia” that ties all visions of humanity together into one—unfinished—story.
