Artificial You
Residency exhibition
November 26–December 7, 2025
The National Asian Culture Center (ACC), Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism of Korea, presents Artificial You, the culminating exhibition of the ACC CREATORS 2025 Residency, on view from November 26 to December 7 at the ACC ACT Studio.
Launched in 2015 with the opening of ACC, the ACC CREATORS Residency marks its tenth anniversary this year. Over the past decade, the program has evolved into an international art & technology platform supporting experimental projects by creators from Asia and around the world.
For the 2025 edition, nine teams were selected through an international open call and a recommendation from one of ACC’s regional partner institutions in Asia. Since August, the participating creators have undertaken an intensive four-month period of research, development, prototyping, and technical experimentation, now presented as this year’s exhibition and public programs.
Artificial You brings together nine newly commissioned works that explore the entanglement of human and machine intelligence, extending the notion of subjectivity into the realms of machines, nature, objects, and other nonhuman agencies. By translating the invisible systems of data and algorithms into sensorial experience, the exhibition proposes renewed ways of perceiving a world increasingly shaped by intelligent infrastructures.
The works span generative AI, real-time simulation, wearable devices, kinetic media, and audiovisual composition, exploring machinic temporalities, fractures within technological control, and emergent modes of existence formed across human and nonhuman interfaces. Together, the projects reflect on a self interlaced with technological civilization and speculate on new conditions of being within the intelligence age.
Alongside the exhibition, ACC presents a series of Creators Programs, including live audiovisual performances that reframe the projects in a performative context, as well as Tech Talks and Workshops held in the exhibition space, offering audiences insight into the creators’ technical processes. All programs are free and open to the public, with advance registration required for select events via the ACC website.
