Harry Yeff AKA Reeps100
Second Self: The Art of A.I and Augmented Relationships
(United Kingdom, 2020)
Film and live talk performance
Duration: 10 min.
Location: virtual environment
Second Self is an ongoing art and science project directed by world-renowned vocalist Harry Yeff aka Reeps100. The beatboxing artist explores his/the human voice beyond the limits of what we think possible. An artificial intelligence (AI) reflects every tone and vibration of his voice, as if a higher entity is talking back. The performance almost feels like a religious experience becoming tangible. The collaboration is an exploration of live performance designed to integrate machine learning and emerging technologies as a practical artistic tool and to raise awareness about technology beyond the academic, technological and engineering demographics through the medium of film and performance.
