Gary A. Freitas' (AZ) "Singularity," [is] a series of sculptures made from computer chips, combining relevant post-humanist insights with a strong visual appeal. Shaped like flowers or mandalas, these sculptures are intended to comment on the confluence of creativity and technology, humanity and digital consciousness. In being equally suggestive of organic life and religious symbolism, Freitas' sculptures do a good job representing humanity's near-spiritual reverence for technology, as well as the theoretical projections of our increasingly entwined relationship with digital devices. (For those who are unfamiliar, "singularity" is a technological theory stating that if we create smarter-than-human intelligence, it will become harder to maintain control over future technologies and our relationship with them.)
