Chimera Obscura (no longer in physical installation form) is a project in a physical museum space “constructed around a telerobotic agent that Internet visitors use to navigate and decode a highly complex maze designed from a human thumbprint.” The work is inspired by a combination of “historical anxieties, eugenic fantasies, and emerging realities evolving from the frontier of contemporary genetics research.”
