The work develops two overlapping narratives about the processes and phenomena of interactions within binary systems. The detection of gravitational waves from merging neutron stars serves as one system, and contemporary polarised ideologies serve as another. The bridging mechanism between them is the use of AI as a tool to enhance information on the one hand, and as an eraser of truth and meaning on the other. Interactions between massive systems generate strange results and new forms of information, while artificial intelligence plays a kind of schizophrenic role in data manipulation. While the gravitational waves from neutron star mergers propagated through spacetime for tens of millions of years, confrontations between increasingly entrenched belief systems led to destabilising and coercive reinterpretations of value and truth.
Massive Binaries is the result of the RANDA Art|Science Residency, organised by the Institut Ramon Llull and hosted by Ars Electronica and the Barcelona Institute of Science and Technology (BIST), with the collaboration of Hac Te, produced by the NewArtFoundation.https://ars.electronica.art/who-owns-the-truth/en/massive-binaries/
