For “All too human?” Dagmar Schürrer presents excerpts of "Where does the rest of the world begin" and Nanut Thanapornrapee shows his work “CAPTHCA” (Completely Automated Public Turing test to tell Humans and Computers Apart). Their independent research interestingly meets in the quest for understanding the human condition. If Schürrer’s work challenges the notion of a human as an exceptional, singularly conscious individual entity, Thanapornrapee’s reminds us of our cyborg identities through speculation and sci-fi.

Utilising KUNSTSURFER, it replaces generic online advertisements with artistic representations, effectively transforming the digital realm into a promotional platform for a fictional museum.
