Convergence (2024-10-04)
Overview
Convergence speculates on a dystopian future in Cape Town, inspired by Rosi Braidotti’s convergence phenomenon, at the intersection of the Fourth Industrial Age and the Sixth Mass Extinction. It portrays a world where tensions between humans, technology, and nature reach a tipping point, with rising sea levels, resource scarcity, population growth, economic disparity, and AI autonomy. The film takes viewers on a passive, immersive journey through Cape Town’s landscapes, inviting them to observe and interpret the environment. It reflects on the impact of our current choices and the potential consequences of failing to engage responsibly with nature and technology.
