Digital Sensing: Biopolitics, Body and Environment

 

This programme gathers four works that probe how digital existence reconfigures our imaginaries of the body and its surrounds. Beginning from the materiality of the digital—the labour, infrastructures, minerals, and climates that sustain computation—the programme rethinks the cultural and social politics embedded in bodies and datasets alike. Their Eyes brings into view the Global South workers who train and maintain artificial intelligence.   Fossilis approaches the digital milieu through an archaeological lens, excavating interfaces and residues to expose technology’s extractive logics. Delivery Dancers’ Sphere traces platform delivery labour and its cultural politics through AI and avatar performance. Tropic Temper scrutinises regimes of environmental control built upon Singapore’s tropical imaginaries. Together, these works ask what is sensed, governed, and resisted when bodies meet computation.

 

數碼感知：生命政治、身體與環境

 

本節目匯聚四部作品，探討數碼存在如何重塑我們對身體及與周遭環境的關係及想像。本節目試圖從數碼的物質性出發，通過維繫運算所需的勞動、基礎設施、礦物及氣候環境，重新審視深埋於身體與數據的文化與社會政治。《我是你的眼》聚焦於訓練與維護人工智慧的全球南方勞工；《化石》以考古學視角切入數碼場域，透過挖掘介面與殘留痕跡，揭露科技的榨取邏輯；《速遞慢步》藉由人工智慧與虛擬化身展演，追溯平台外送勞動及其文化政治；《狂熱地帶》則檢視建構於新加坡熱帶想像之上的環境控制體系。這些作品共同叩問：當身體遭遇數碼運算，如何被感知？如何被管治？怎樣可抵抗？
