Aramis Navarro's "Babelibabibliotheca" at Doppelganger Gallery, St. Gallen

The exhibition "Babelibabibliotheca" by Aramis Navarro at St. Gallen's Doppelganger Gallery delves into the creation of content through algorithmic frameworks, drawing inspiration from Jorge Luis Borges's "The Library of Babel." Utilizing AI algorithms and digital techniques, Navarro references concepts such as "Moltbook," "Crustafarianism," and "AI Psychosis." His use of etching and cyanotype results in intricate compositions filled with intertwined narratives and symbols. By invoking Édouard Glissant's notion of the "right to opacity," he implies that ambiguity can challenge authority. The second series, "RSI – Recursive Self-Improvement," illustrates AI's self-optimization, paralleling the Habsburg dynasty's inbreeding and its associated deformities, suggesting that technology shapes beliefs and values rather than merely forecasting AI's trajectory.
