“They wandered in and out of lost worlds…”
Voiceover, Until the End of the World (1991, Wim Wenders)
Developed through workshops, Until The End Of The World is a series of films in relation to a gallery or museum's collection. Collections are a sleeping repository of pasts and presents that, once woken, influence meaning in the future through exhibitions. Whilst they sleep, can we conceive of them dreaming? After all, dreams are atemporal self-reflection spaces, experiencers of deep fantasy, exposers of desires, and portals to process the voices of around us. What if being awake was just to capture data for our dreams? What would the dreams of the a collection look like?
Developed through workshops, Until the End of the World is a new film commission by Sarah Perks and Paul Stewart for the Working Lives exhibition at MIMA, on show until Sun 29 September. This project invites publics to articulate the dreams of the collection and visualise them using machine learning, with a resulting AI-generated film off
