simultaneously experience both AI “self-learning” and its “recursive learning process.” This project will be the first exhibition at Kyoto University’s new art space! Rhizomatiks will be exhibiting the AI work “recursive” at Kyoto University from Monday, October 6, 2025 to the end of January 2026.

Comprised of artists, designers, and engineers, the collective is responsible for all stages of a project, from hardware and software development to operation. Additionally, through collaborative work with external artists, researchers, and scientists, we present cutting-edge works of art and research to the world. https://rhizomatiks.com

This is an ongoing project that develops the “AI Model” and explores the theme of “recursive self-learning and the evolution of creativity.” Last year, at the

This exhibition can be described as a challenging endeavor that reveals the process of creation and evolution through artwork. This exhibition, planned by the Kyoto University Graduate School of Management’s “Curation Theory, Practice and Management Endowed Chair” and the Growth Strategy Headquarters, is the first exhibit in a newly constructed art exhibition environment in the International Science and Innovation Building on Kyoto University’s Yoshida Campus. Please come and see it at the venue.
