Prosthetic X started in 2019 as a research project around the question: ‘How might we increase health and beauty on the outside of our bodies’. After 2 years of research and experimentation, it will be presented as a speculative installation on Nov 26th 2021, opening the dialogue about e-health and data privacy through the exploration
In this project Isaac Monté and In4Art will collaborate to create Prosthetic X. They found each other in the fascination for healthy aging and the increasing need to design and enable interaction to combat loneliness. It is inspired by the concept of ‘inner beauty’ from the research project ‘Art of Deception’ by Isaac Monté and
Interested in how an anatomical lesson of an artificial data organ would look like? For the third time, our collaboration partner Isaac will lead the experiments for Prosthetic X during a testing night enabled by V2_. During the first night, we focused on internal health indicators. The second night, we validated some assumptions on social
Experiments are an essential part of every art practice. Even more than the end results, experiments, bèta versions and try-outs offer an inside look on how an artist thinks and works. Therefore, the experiment is made central in 3×3. V2_ offers three artists the space, time and resources to develop three experiments. Every first Friday
We are proud to announce that we recevied one of the awards within the call ‘Je Data de Baas’ of the SIDN Fonds. The SIDN Fund stands for ‘a strong internet for all’. They provide financial support to ideas and projects that aim to make the internet stronger or that use the internet in innovative
In4Art is part of the consortium ‘Healthy living as a service’ bringing in Prosthetic X and VYX as part of the NWO KIC ‘Lifestyle and Living Environment’ research grant.
At In4Art, we work along two program lines: Data Interfaces Closing material loops In these two programs, we conduct research projects, Art-Driven Innovation Experiments and provide guidance. Data Interfaces The Data Interfaces program is focused on the technological developments in the field of AI, IoT, human- machine interaction and also deals with privacy and agency.
VYX, the art-driven innovation of Prosthethic X, is selected for S+T+ARTS in Motion. A next step towards realising a responsible wearable.
