Film synopsis:
On June 6th, 2022, two Google employees had a private conversation with an A.I. system that claimed it was sentient.

The details were recorded and later released via a publicly available transcript, resulting in an international stir about just how close we are to creating a sentient intelligence system.

This short film is inspired by that conversation. The A.l. responses have not been altered.

No experience is necessary, but please come with an idea or example of imagery you would like to carve. All other materials are provided.

This lab differs from our usual block printing programs because linoleum is a harder material to work with. Expect to spend the majority of the lab carving your project.
