Developed from a collection of poems inspired by silverfish, the work transforms personal discomfort into a digital landscape shaped by memory, metaphor, and machinic voice. The original poems, rooted in autobiographical experience, are whispered by an AI-generated voice, creating a sonic atmosphere that oscillates between intimacy and alienation. Within the video, a virtual shelter emerges, gradually shifting the perception of bugs from unwelcome intruders to pest friends. Drawing inspiration from Korean shamanic cleansing rituals, the work asks whether digital space can serve as a site of digital exorcism. Through this multifaceted experiment in literature, art, and digital technology, &lt;To you with excuses> not only documents an encounter with the more-than-human world but also reimagines it as a site of speculative empathy. It gestures toward an expanded poetics where fear, memory, and technology entangle to propose new modes of sharing space with others\u2014both organic and artificial.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"marcatexto\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"marcatexto\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"marcatexto\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<details class=\"wp-block-details has-secondary-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-14e4d3da960c00be4e428d8d16a53de9 is-layout-flow wp-block-details-is-layout-flow\"><summary>AI Context<\/summary>\n<p>&lt;To you with excuses> integrates artificial intelligence as a poetic agent. The work features a whispering AI-generated voice that recites autobiographical poems. Rather than using AI for generative production, it serves as a tool for emotional modulation, intensifying the intimacy, secrecy, and alienation embedded in the original poems. This subtle use of AI reframes authorship and embodiment, inviting reflection on how machinic voices shape the poetic landscape within digital environments.<\/p>\n<\/details>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:38px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading titulobio has-x-large-font-size\"><strong>Sohyun Lee<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-left marcatexto\"><strong>South Korea<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<details class=\"wp-block-details has-secondary-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-5870fb2f2cc778a36fed4dfb2468acda is-layout-flow wp-block-details-is-layout-flow\"><summary>Bio<\/summary>\n<p>Sohyun Lee (b.1993 in Seoul) is a Cologne-based media and installation artist.
