<Newborn Space v1.1.0> is part of the 'Newborn' project, which predicts and implements future cultural patterns using contemporary technology. It is a media installation that subverts the vision-centric spatial perception system and reconstructs space through hearing.

Rapid technological advancements have expanded the object of enjoyment beyond physical reality to 'non-material virtual space' composed of data and signals. However, unlike the extreme fluidity of digital space, which can be reconstructed with a single click, physical space remains bound by limitations requiring immense costs and physical constraints to change. This discrepancy in speed and flexibility between the two spaces increasingly fades the inherent meaning of fixed physical space. Amidst this phenomenon, the 'Newborn Space' project attempts 'Spatial Upcycling' to break away from the inertia of familiarity. It endows physical space with new value by utilizing the marginalized sense of hearing instead of the basal sense of vision.

Developed within this context, <Newborn Space v1.1.0> inherits the technical methodology and data established by its predecessor, <Newborn Space> (Newborn Space v1.0.0), but explores the sound-space correlation on a new layer by introducing variations to the AI's learning algorithm. Although derived from the same data collected by four action cameras and an Ambisonic recorder, the output displayed on the 12-monitor media wall via the modified learning method presents another possibility of how sound interprets space, manifesting a more fragmented hidden side of future space derived by AI.

This endeavor illuminates a future where virtual space, freed from physical constraints, overlaps with reality, blurring the boundaries between them. By grafting digital fluidity onto physical space to provide a momentary experience generated differently at every instant, <Newborn Space v1.1.0> evokes conflicting emotions of alertness and awe regarding cultural changes driven by technological development, presenting a new existential meaning for physical space in the expanding digital era.
