Future Machine @ BAM

While working at Electric Coffin we were asked to take up a 6-month residency at the Bellevue Art Museum. This included 5 installations that grew throughout the gallery, adding up to a final element that used artificial intelligence to affect the entire space.

The installation consisted of five distinct development phases in the unfolding of Future Machine: Idea, Fuel, Mechanics, Illumination, and Future.

A conversation series was hosted around each phase to foster discussion around the installation themes and the works presented.

Collaborators added their own unique contributions to each of Electric Coffin’s phases, a metaphor for the way unconventional collaborations work together to drive society forward.
