Synopsis

Human.ID explores identity in the age of digital surveillance, where every online interaction contributes to an invisible portrait of who we are. As we navigate digital spaces, we perform different versions of ourselves for different audiences, creating fragmented identities that are authentic yet incomplete. These fragments are collected, classified, and transformed into data, reducing memories, relationships, and behaviors to measurable patterns. As algorithms evolve from observation to prediction, they begin to influence our choices and reshape our sense of self. The work ultimately asks a fundamental question: when our identity is distributed across countless digital versions, who are we, and who decides who we become?
