- Ray Tijssen (aka 0010×0010) opened "Algorithmic Organisms 2.0" at The Grey Box, GMBB Kuala Lumpur, with the public run continuing through July 19.
- The exhibition combines AI, generative imagery, immersive audio, and spatial narrative design to produce a continuously evolving audiovisual environment.
- Jazzy Group of Companies organized the show, with MAISEAT as presenting partner and support from the National Art Gallery of Malaysia (Balai Seni Negara) and the Embassy of the Kingdom of the Netherlands in Kuala Lumpur.
- Joanne Goh, founder and CEO of Jazzy Group, framed the show as turning visitors from passive observers into participants within the work itself.
- The exhibition is a sidebar installation to the Malaysia International Film Festival's 2026 edition (July 18-25 in Kuala Lumpur), which Variety first reported on in April.
- Tijssen will lead a complementary "Machine Vision & Human Expression: An Interactive Masterclass with 0010×0010" on July 4 at the National Art Gallery of Malaysia.
Why it matters: Backed by the Dutch Embassy and Malaysia's National Art Gallery, the show signals institutional appetite for AI-driven immersive art in Southeast Asia and plugs directly into MIFFest 2026 (July 18-25). For Jazzy Group, it extends the festival footprint into tech-art territory and brings Los Angeles–based Dutch artist Tijssen into KL's creative circuit.
