White Nebula: Beyond the Data Cosmos

The fusion of popular music and AI is breaking new artistic boundaries, leading to unprecedented innovations. The virtual idol group IITERNITI stands at the forefront of this new era, born from the vast universe of data, manifesting as light. This exhibition, IITERNITI + U - A Korean Virtual Idol Exhibition, invites visitors into this enchanting world, where data is transformed into light, offering a fully immersive experience with AI.

Just as RGB primary colours come together to form a single light, IITERNITI is created from countless pieces of RGB data by generative deep-learning technology, forming a shining digital data nebula. This nebula is not a mere collection of information, but a living universe that constantly evolves through interaction with its audience. At the heart of this exhibition, you — 'U' — are invited to explore this sensory world where light and data converge.

The central feature of this exhibition is the chance to witness the expanse of this data nebula through an infinity mirror. In this seemingly endless cosmos, where light and data intertwine and disperse, you will find yourself in the heart of a distant universe, far from Earth, encountering the AI idol group IITERNITI. Additionally, hologram boxes offer an interactive experience where visitors can engage in real-time conversations with each of the IITERNITI members. Through these direct interactions, you will delve deeper into their unique personalities and musical worlds. In collaboration with the Hong Kong Design Institute, students from the Digital Media, Communication Design, and Fashion & Image Design departments will showcase their innovative designs inspired by the encounters with IITERNITI, reflecting the intersection of creativity and technology through the lens of their generation.

IITERNITI + U - A Korean Virtual Idol Exhibition creates a moment where AI and the audience connect through light and data, offering a personalised and intimate musical experience. This exhibition showcases how pop music, when merged with cutting-edge technology, transforms into a new dimension of idol, providing a new experience.
