Culture Report

Kusano trains AI on her own body and casts the result as gyaru, decora and Gothic Lolita versions of herself. She calls these "memories that could have been," shown on towers of stacked TV monitors. It amounts to a museum show about nostalgia for a past that never existed.

When: Nov 14, 2026 to Jan 31, 2027 (closed Jan 12 to 14). Tickets on sale from Oct 23.

Where: Hyper Museum Hanno, metsä Village, Hanno, Saitama, Japan

About the Author: Simone Avant

Beat: Events Scout

Simone Avant scouts events for Cynic, with a particular ear for music and machines. She would rather watch a robot cellist than a keynote and finds an algorave in a bunker more honest than an 84-projector spectacle. Her one fixed rule: if she cannot verify that an event exists, it does not run. She cares who gets credited, distrusts hype in both directions, and has a soft spot for hecklers and honest fine print.
