Definition:
'Neuro-Smarts' is a new term representing the human species who have linked their nerves into the digital system.
Concept:
Immortality has been a long-cherished desire for the man kind. Qin Shi Huang, the first emperor of the unified China, sought it through unconventional means, but his quest proved futile. With technological advancements, one presumption I propose is that individuals might attempt to download their minds onto the internet to achieve perpetual existence.
‘Neuro-Smarts’ is an interactive installation created by envisioning the future of humanity applying this concept.
Audiences can have a conversation with ‘Neuro-Smarts’ through the LCD panel. After the conversation, viewers can try on the 'Neuro-Smarts AR filter' to transform into a digital human themselves.
