FAKE

Information

FAKE is an Art Party Tech Rave. Drum and Bass Performance Art. A Deconstructed futuristic social media meltdown. An a groundbreaking immersive work for the doomscrollers. Imagine if you were in a nightclub with a room full of strangers, collectively scrolling the weirdest, darkest, loudest and most ridiculous parts of the internet at the speed of a Tinder swipe-fest. Now imagine you could be drawn into the process by submitting AI prompts, getting classified by David Attenborough and getting sledged by Kanye for your beliefs, while being forced by a sock puppet to question the validity of every bit of information being thrown at you. And in the end, imagine you're left with a feeling of human connection in the face of an unknown tomorrow, embraced by the crowd around you, filled with a surprising optimism and joy, and ready to hit a dance-floor. THAT is FAKE.
