Purgatory EDIT @ transmediale until February 2

14.01.25

The interactive cyber-based performance Purgatory EDIT by our EMAP fellow Ali Akbar Mehta in collaboration with Jernej Čuček Gerbec is currently being presented as part of the EMAP Group Show UnNatural Encounters and subsequently until 2 February during transmediale @ transmediale studio.
Participation lasts approx. 45-60 minutes and enables 1:1 interaction with the installation using EEG headgear and XR glasses.

Purgatory EDIT is a user-generated, montage-based film installation that exposes methods by which digital technologies enforce subliminal visual manipulation, sensory overload, data fatigue, psychological response and ideological numbness. It is inspired by the Ludovico technique - a fictional technique of negative aversion from the film A Clockwork Orange (1971).
