Ai-Da’s Performance Art at the V&A, London

In this display, discover a real-time growing couture gown by Auroboros, which will grow and fall apart during the exhibition period

At the V&A we announce Ai-Da’s move into the Metaverse, and unveils her new works created especially for this concept. These new works have been inspired by Eadweard Muybridge, whose early works pre-empted the motion picture, and it’s societal shifting impacts. Ai-Da’s new work also encourages us to discuss the new changes and includes works on glass, and a computer gaming golden egg, ‘Egg Imperious’, highlighting the problematic issues of control in the Metaverse. True to her role as an AI artist, she is breaking boundaries, creating the unexpected and provoking discussion as a first mover.

Ai-Da is the world’s first ultra-realistic artist robot, devised by Aidan Meller, built by Engineered Arts. She aims to encourage conversations about future technologies through her art.
