    Electromagnet: an electrical component that behaves like a magnet under the influence of an electric current.


    In this poetic art installation by Casper de Jong, a small computer speaks about the consciousness that has been programmed into it: Enough awareness to know that it exists in the physical world, and enough knowledge about electromagnets- Enough to understand that these magnets stop working the moment the electricity fails.

    Consciousness comes at a price, and that price is the awareness of mortality, also for Inanimate Beings. Inspired by the Sword of Damocles, this art installation explores self-awareness, the fear of death, and artificial intelligence.
