“Sub-Routines” is a journey through liminal spaces created by AI and the real world. Seeking to explore the nature of what society may be in the future if the lines between humanistic curiosity and controlled electronic doctrine intersect.

The term “sub-routines” refers to the often invisible processes embedded within larger systems—smaller commands that execute critical functions behind the scenes. In the context of AI, these subroutines mirror our own unconscious patterns: the repetitive scroll, the automated decision, the learned bias. As algorithms begin to mirror human behavior, and humans begin to adapt to algorithmic rhythms, “Sub-Routines” asks questions like: “Who is programming whom?” Or “Are these algorithmic rhythms which we continually integrate into our lives turning us into thoughtless drones, repeating a series of processes?

Through installations, interactive works, and digital pieces “Sub-Routines” invites visitors to reflect on these current systems that can shape our choices, and by extension our nature as a society. In this shared space of human-machine collaboration and conflict, “Sub-Routines” presents AI not as an imagined part of some distant future, but as a present agent.
