Artist Statement:
Pwned concerns artistic research based on the notion of bodies of data to question how our technified memory (everything that is stored and registered in databases) participates in constructing desire and projecting the future. From the creation of trained artificial intelligence, primarily with private data such as the history of the artist’s movements over the past few years, Santamaría will ask the machine about his future movements. Its response will devise a series of routes and behaviours to be reproduced by a human body. This offers us the possibility of observing how reality is transformed when the physical body is traversed by its doubles and virtualities.
