    About the artist<\/span><\/h2>\n

    Ville MJ Hyv\u00f6nen<\/p>\n

    Artist<\/p>\n

    Ville MJ Hyv\u00f6nen is a sound artist who explores the boundaries between human and machine communication. Uncanny Whispers uses machine learning models and AI-voiced phishing messages to create an eerie, glitchy atmosphere.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n <\/div>\n

    \n
    \n

    Uncanny Whispers explores hacker culture, social engineering, and phishing through a soundscape created by multiple machine learning models. Using inputs from early acoustic modems, C-64 loading sounds, and electromagnetic noises from modern data networks, combined with AI-voiced phishing messages, the work creates an unsettling atmosphere that plays with the uncanny valley effect. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n
