Trace2 explores the lingering presence of contact tracing protocols, and layers of geofencing and bio-surveillance by speculating new forms of artificial life that might emerge, especially in tune with the gradual decommissioning of TraceTogether. In collaboration with dance-artist Bernice Lee and researcher-writer Federico Ruberto alongside a trained machine learning language model, the speculative Trace2 protocol incorporates motion sensor-based contact hubs distributed across the exhibition, allowing the public to navigate post-pandemic traumas and interact to find an attunement to spaces both physical and digital.
