Amsterdam Light Festival

Edition 12: Get immersed in the stories of AI and technology

For Amsterdam Light Festival 2023-2024 we have asked artists to consider the effects of technology and artificial intelligence (AI) on our everyday lives. The ways in which we communicate, engage and create are all impacted by technology and AI. What is the impact on the human condition? How does society change because of this digital evolution? And where are the boundaries? The different perspectives will be highlighted during Edition 12, with the theme: LOADING… Revealing Art, AI and Tech.

The route consists of more than twenty light artworks by the hand of
international artists. From renowned names to surprising newcomers and everything in between. A very diverse selection. We dive deeper into our relationship with personal tech, the mobile phone being at the forefront – we cannot live without it, but sometimes you wish you could throw it in the canal. Subjects such as swarm intelligence, self learning algorithms, facial recognition and motion capture are also explored.

Edition 12 is a translation of, or commentary on, the all-encompassing and omnipresent technology that we so heavily rely on and that is intertwined with our everyday lives. What’s coming next? That’s still Loading… The festival will take place from Nov. 30, 2023 through Jan. 21, 2024. The lights will be on from 5 p.m. to max. 11 p.m. (on Dec. 31, the lights will be off).
