Strategy Matrix (2024-2025)

Strategy Matrix is a card game that transforms CAC Project Space into an incubatior for collective intelligence. Players take on roles including a technology company, hacker, Huangtian Houtu, digital laborer, policymaker, user, and AI entity, drawing cards from two decks--one containing digital technology elements and the other featuring reciprocal agricultural theoretical and practical knowledge--to create strategies for tackling to a series of natural, economic, and social crises emerging from AI development. Meanwhile, as the game is played throughout the exhibition, an AI entity will continuously accumulate, analyze, and learn from players' strategies, gradually forming an unique narrative game-based knowledge system that serves as a diverse and open-source toolbox for addressing complex social, technological, and environmental challenges. Through the cyclical process of "player-strategy-AI feedback," Farming Instead of Mining_Strategy Matrix 1.0 weaves the power of fiction with the entangled reality embedded in planetary-scale computation.
