    'First Sight' is a collaborative project/EP from Bon Music Vision and Akiko Haruna - Bon's sound is rooted in the desire to support The Other, exploring a space in counterculture and how it morphs from one scene to another. Haruna presents sonic narratives through a platter of textures, melodies and organised chaos. Her sound is born from a desire to transform intangible meaning into rich, 3D, acoustic environments.

    The three have come together to create a project that soundtracks future soundscapes and scenarios in both Sci- Fi Utopias and Dystopias. Using analogue equipment and live instruments the trio have crafted 3 tracks of retro futurism.

    "We were inspired by the ideas surrounding AI and their ability to love. Love is a distinctly human concept. If AI do not have the same hormones and chemicals that drive our actions in our own human experiences, we wonder how AI might be capable of love and how that might present itself.

    Some say humans are the incubators for a God-like super intelligence. Human creations via AI and Quantum computing will give rise to an intelligence that outperforms the human intellect by orders of magnitude.

    What are the emotional repercussions of that? Myth, storytelling and religion have always guided society and humanity. In 2016 Microsoft's AI twitter bot was designed to become "smarter" as more users interacted with it, but it was taken offline after 24h hours as it began to imitate the public and regurgitate back a hostile personality.

    What will the AI be following and guided by? How does the role of Gods, archetypes and ethics play into the AI behaviour? The different kinds of love are addressed, or rather the many different faces/sides of love. Love is such a mysterious, often unexplainable thing with humans, but love and attachment seems to be something central to all of our lives. How would AI learn and experience love?"     ... more
