Postphenomenology, Artificial Intelligence, and Cyborg Intentionality : Exploring Verbeek’s Influence in Diemut Strebe’s Transformative Art Installations

This study examines the intricate intersection of humanity, technology, and art, employing postphenomenology and cyborg intentionality as theoretical frameworks. Focusing on the avant-garde installations of the artist Diemut Strebe, specifically Sugababe and The Prayer, this study reveals the transformative potential of technology-infused art. Postphenomenology elucidates the nuanced dynamics of human-technology relations, complemented by Peter-Paul Verbeek's cyborg intentionality. Strebe's installations, analyzed qualitatively, challenge conventional boundaries, with Sugababe interrogating art, biotechnology, and the human body, while The Prayer delves into artificial intelligence and spirituality. These findings contribute to the discourse on the ethical implications and transformative power of technology-infused art in contemporary society.
