CONCEPT
This installation will deliver a flash talk of about 90 seconds after which the floor is open to discussion (on-topic). The AI will respond to specific questions from the audience, trying to set up a discussion around the topic. The topic of the talk can be given by the audience. They do this by picking up the phone, listening to the instructions to give a topic and speaking out loud the topic. After a positive NSFW check the talk will be started. During the talk slides will be shown on the instruction screen. The screen also provides feedback to the audience of the state of the talk so they know how long the talk will last and when they can start asking questions. The installation will run as long as nobody turns off the power to the installation, and it will restart when power is reconnected. That simple. No internet is needed, no further assistance is required. There are details in this concept that can be changed or adapted to better suit the situation., please get in touch
