Ideogenetic Machine is an installation that transforms the audience into the protagonists of unique comic books. During the presentation, Nova Jiang will reveal new props designed for the audience to interact with, which will help them feel more a part of the fictional world she has created. The audience is invited to play, perform or collaborate using these props, and see what unexpected narratives they can help generate. Reception to follow the demonstration and discussion.
