New Humans: Memories of the Future
Spanning the twentieth and twenty-first centuries, this playlist traces changing visions of the body, identity, memory, and the future in the face of rapid technological transformation. Through speculative worlds, synthetic beings, machine intelligence, and more-than-human forms of life, the films imagine what it means to be human—and what might come after. Featured here are the video works from New Humans: Memories of the Future, including films by Sophia Al-Maria, Rebecca Allen, Cao Fei, Mika Rottenberg, Hito Steyerl, Sidsel Meineche Hansen, Alice Wang and others, offering a journey through the many possible futures of being human.
