u2p050 wants to show a new cosmos from the point of view of machines. In a somewhat apocalyptic world in which there would be no human mediator, how does the cow, the main character whose perception we have, see herself in relation to the technical apparatus? How do they interact? What kinds of relationships are formed between animals and machines ?
The research for this project involved an investigation on how cows perceive their sound and visual environment. It allows the viewer to blend in with the corpse of a cow to feel what a dairy cow feels and hears, down to the tiniest ultrasound, in a mechanical environment specially designed to interact. with her.
u2p050 puts in perspective that the blockchain can be compared to cellular life in the way it grows. Machines express themselves with signals that we do not understand yet, from a world filled with possibilities that perpetually overlap with ours. Within the frame of Avatar in Metaverse exhibition, this movie offers the spectator to experience the full potential of crypto as a new step towards a decentralized ecology. Smart contract as a way of making politics between humans, machines and animals. Indeed, u2p050 underlines the deep link between the digitization of money, and the technological transformation of agricultural systems of exploitation. It is not a coincidence that the two events are occuring at the same time. They are one and the same transformation on the global scale of our planet.
