Machine Hallucination: NYC at ARTECHOUSE

This groundbreaking immersive exhibition, in collaboration with award-winning media artist and pioneer in the aesthetics of machine intelligence, Refik Anadol, returns to ARTECHOUSE NYC, now with an opportunity to collect immersive experiential NFTs.

Commissioned by ARTECHOUSE and created by Refik Anadol, Machine Hallucination: NYC is a time and space exploration into New York City’s past and potential future. This completely immersive exhibition is of New York, by New York and for New York — a fitting tribute to one of the world’s greatest cities and architectural marvels. Exploring New York through the mind of a machine, Machine Hallucination: NYC aims to uncover the ever-changing shape of the city, evoking our collective memory and the ways that new forms of visual representation can alter our perception of this iconic destination.

In partnership with Nifty Gateway, this special viewing of Machine Hallucination: NYC, which attracted over 100,000 visitors in its first showing, will also feature an exclusive location drop of exhibition-based experiential NFT art, a collection composed of 1,000 unique NFTs from Anadol available to visitors on-site only at ARTECHOUSE’s New York location.
