Employing the Bayesian mind framework and predictive processing theory, Bayes Valley aims to unravel the cognitive mechanisms that govern how individuals perceive themselves within artificially generated environments. By examining the cognitive landscapes rooted in both physical and digital realms, the research-based piece seeks to shed light on the evolving narrative of human self-awareness and intelligence. Combining advanced physics simulations and theoretical frameworks, the large scale installation hopes to offer novel insights into the complex relationships between human cognition, landscapes, and the transformative influence of intelligent systems on our self-perception.
