Meet the Hallucinatory Interfaces and Future-Seeing Worms of Ian Cheng’s AI Narrative “Life After BOB”

“The characters experience their various BOB plugins through a hallucinatory interface; their neural guides are represented by red worms with up to three heads, each tipped with eye-like shapes, as if they can see the future.”
– Writer Travis Diehl, parsing Life After BOB (2021), Ian Cheng’s AI narrative film currently on view at The Shed, New York
