Sands of self is a collective project in the framework of a joint course offered by Guillaume Chevillon (ESSEC Metalab for Data, Technology & Society) and Jeff Guess (\u00c9cole nationale sup\u00e9rieure d\u2019arts Paris-Cergy) with guest artist Mounir Ayache who proposed to create a video game using Artificial Intelligence in all aspects of production. A group of four ENSAPC students created the exhibition and put the finishing touches on the game.
\nThis project has received government funding managed by the Agence Nationale de la Recherche (ANR) under the France 2030 future investment program, under reference ANR-17-NCUN-016.<\/p>\n

Set in a simulated version of the city of Cergy \u2013 to which the students are closely linked \u2013 the game revisits the idea of the Ville Nouvelle in an indeterminate future, characterized by the increasing embeddedness of artificial intelligence in all aspects of urban life.
\nThe generative AI models used for the game\u2019s design, programming, soundtrack and narration produce an environment with blurred boundaries, that the player can explore by interacting with an omniscient voice echoing through the exhibition space.
\nThe installation extends the game by associating objects found in Cergy \u2013 residues of urban metabolism \u2013 with recovered fragments of d\u00e9cor, creating a juxtaposition of different narratives.<\/p>\n
