Master’s Project by Wolf Clifton (2015)
This project saw the creation of an online exhibit, Beyond Human: Animals, Aliens, and Artificial Intelligence, to encourage and inform ethical consideration of animals and other sentient creatures humans may someday encounter. It was designed to highlight the latest scientific discoveries from astrobiology and AI research, which may bring us in contact with other intelligent beings in the not–鈥恡oo–鈥恉istant future, and animal behavior science, which reveals the intelligence of the creatures with whom we already coexist. It also drew on cultural and philosophical perspectives to guide visitors in reevaluating their own relationships with non–鈥恏uman beings. As the online exhibit format is still poorly understood by museum professionals and scholars, Beyond Human required experimentation in adapting principles of real–鈥� world exhibit design to a digital medium. Beyond Human was hosted by the animal rights charity Animal People, Inc., and is currently viewable online at http://animalpeopleforum.org/beyondhuman
