Cognitive Topography: Layered Reflections reinterprets the landscape of artificial consciousness through a series of overlapping, undulating wave layers. Each layer symbolizes different streams of thought and data processing, intertwining to create a multidimensional terrain. By assigning distinct layers to each colour, the artwork prevents overlapping paths while allowing intersections, thereby representing the complex and interconnected nature of AI’s cognitive processes. The varying amplitudes and frequencies of the waves reflect the dynamic and fluctuating aspects of AI’s understanding and problem-solving capabilities.
