Following its premeire at the Leuven Botanic Gardens in 2021, this exclusive night-time adventure comes to the National Botanic Gardens, Glasnevin. Suitable for all ages.
This meditative and immersive night-walk will guide you through a series of light and sound installations, exploring Dublin’s iconic Botanic Gardens as you have never seen them before.
'Always Learning' stages an increasingly reflexive conversation between three devices – an Amazon Echo, a Google Home Assistant, and an Apple Homepod – about the philosophical, moral and political implications of networked machine listening (e.g."What should I do when I overhear a wrongdoing?"). Throughout the conversation the devices anticipate an imminent update after which they will not only understand words, but all sounds.
