“I M U” video artwork at WUR library
WUR library is currently exhibiting the interactive video artwork “I M U”. “I M U” is a philosophical essay in images that invites for reflection. It is an AI film installation that you experience individually: through a mirror and a screen, you become part of a 10-minute video. This artwork has been created by Juul van der Laan and gives a unique opportunity to experience the work of philosopher Mogobe Ramose from South Africa.
The video artwork is open to everybody. No need to register, just go there, and enjoy the 10 minute ride (see flyer)!
