What happens when a man who has forgotten everything tries, with the help of a computer, to remember the life he has lived? What if that person hasn't forgotten everything? What if that person doesn't even react like a human being? Biography of a Software is a multimedia action, inspired and realized by the visual artist George Drivas in collaboration with the music composer Melina Paxinou, that explores and presents the evolution of artificial intelligence (AI) programs through moving image, photography and music.
