''The most important scientific revolutions all include, as their only common feature, the dethronement of human arrogance fro one pedestal after another of previous convictions about our centrality in the cosmos.''

Our very own enhanced scientific abilities are undermining our delusion of human centrality to the universe. While 2021 triggerin a motion of re-vision and re-definition of the concept of being human, the world is witnessing a species-wise blurring of boundarie that shifting the paradigm in the perception of the human body. We are witnessing the first sprouts of organic and machine intertwine which is not so different than the initial steps of microorganisms having to switch and grow to more complex entities hundreds of millio years ago. We already started to see the primitive examples of our future ancestors combining technology, biology, and awareness.

The symbiosis between machin and organic is a new chapter into our future, but what should be our focus as we design and implemen human-machine symbiosis for the purpose of reaching the next step for mankind?

Sentient is a digital generative art piece that originates from this profound inquiry. This artwork invites visitors to explore the potential symbiosis between human and machines touching upon the physical, mental, ethical, and philosophical implications of such a convergence.

The piece aspires to carve out a contemplative space for audiences to reflec on which values should be given priority as we mold our personal

and collective futures. "Sentient" is not just a visual experience; it is a meditative journey, prompting dee introspection on the harmony of organic life with mechanical augmentation.







How have the past 20 years been affected by climate change?
How much water has receded?
How it has affected the glaciers?
How much land mass has decreased?
Exosphere from Strata Series gives the answers using Google Earth satellite images driven by the global warming data of different locations between the years 1999-2021.

The new awakening of human and machine fusion is just starting to sprout like the initial steps of microorganisms which had to switch and grow into more complex entities hundreds of millions of years ago.

*Coalescence: The uniting or merging of elements to form one mass or whole.

In the quantum universe at low energy levels convergent to absolute zero, atoms combine by stripping off their characteristic features and perform in harmony as if they were part of a whole.

Inspired by this phenomenon, ‘Coalescence’ transcends mere physicality to explore the profound philosophical implications of unity and multitude through the dance of atoms in the quantum universe where distinct pieces lose their individuality to form a harmonious whole at the brink of absolute zero. Creating chaos in harmony by merging simple elements in production practice, Karasu interprets the concepts of unity-multitude over this harmonious integration by mimicking the quantum behavior on a macro scale. ‘Coalescence', reveals the interconnectedness beyond the apparent chaos and order in the universe; and challenges the viewer to appreciate the beauty in diversity while reflecting the universal truth that within the multitude lies multiple singular essences that are waiting to be discovered.
