"Trustworthy Surfaces" is an interactive live installation that uses a camera system to detect humans, faces, and hands, transforming them into digital 2D data clouds in a 3D digital realm. Each participant gets assigned a unique symbol. Just as René Magritte's concept from „Ceci n'est pas une pipe.“ , we are challenging our perceptions of identity and existence in the digital age. In an age of the co-evolution of humans and machines, we get lost in the midst of asking our fellow AI what to cook for dinner when I only have these three ingredients at home; why do I have headache now, is it because of the humidity today; if JD Vance would be better or worse than Trump and how to break up a clingy friendship - What does it mean to be 'real' in a world increasingly mediated by technology?
