The installation rethinks an age-old gathering ritual: a dinner with friends, where an AI, named Parasite, becomes the host and co-creator of the spatial experience and physical objects. The collective dinner transforms the private setting of home into a public domain, mirroring our current condition of dwelling in multiple realities and investigating how we inhabit and interact within networked virtual spaces, and how we foster parasitic relationships with AI systems, redefining the fabric of communal gathering in the digital age. What happens when species meet?<br><br><strong>Me AndOther Me<\/strong> (creative partnership of she\/her Anna Pompermaier &amp; he\/him Cenk G\u00fczelis) is a new media-driven artistic and architectural research studio exploring the future of our spatial experiences and communication through practical applications of social mixed reality experiences focused on online culture and the spatial web. Anna and Cenk are architects, educators, and researchers at .\/studio3, the Institute for Experimental Architecture of Innsbruck University, where they conduct practice-led research at the intersection of experimental architecture, contemporary art, new media and artificial intelligence. Their artistic and architectural research has been showcased at ACADIA, strand, LMDA conferences, and featured in publications for R.I.B.A., SOBRE, and MOUSSE among others. Their works and collaborative projects have been exhibited at Ars Electronica, L.E.V., IDFA, Laval Virtual, Impakt, iMAL, Daejeon Museum of Art and more. They&#8217;ve delivered keynotes at events like DOKLeipzig and The Future of Living Conference, Bozar (Brussels), and participated in residencies, like the European Media Art residency Program at iMAL, Brussels, in 2023.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/festival2024.rixc.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/54098552222_4d9f6f0d32_k-1-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3536\" srcset=\"https:\/\/festival2024.rixc.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/54098552222_4d9f6f0d32_k-1-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/festival2024.rixc.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/54098552222_4d9f6f0d32_k-1-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/festival2024.rixc.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/54098552222_4d9f6f0d32_k-1-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/festival2024.rixc.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/54098552222_4d9f6f0d32_k-1-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/festival2024.rixc.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/54098552222_4d9f6f0d32_k-1.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><em>Me AndOther Me.
