Editions from the Library of Nonhuman Books, the Cloud of Unknowing, and artworks from A Jagged Orbit, are in the PROMPT exhibition. 

The Prompt: Design × AI exhibition, which is curated by the Shenzhen Graphic Design Association (SGDA), explores how artificial intelligence is reshaping visual design, systems, and creative processes. The CCU works are curated alongside globally known projects from artists and designers, including interactive installations and visual projects like RNDR's Oracle and Garden of Friction.

The exhibition will continue from July 25 – October 25, 2026.

Legal notice

At the CCU we practice many experimental art techniques of appropriation, including computational collage where existing publications and artefacts (including books, magazines, audio and video recordings) and other found matter, are 'cut-up' and recombined into new works. The use of these found materials means that parts of the original may be included in the final artworks and/or process documentation. In such cases, we acknowledge the use of the original somewhere in the didactic description or directly within the work itself. However, any inclusion of the found work, or part thereof, in the final artwork should not imply any endorsement of the CCU by the original publication's authors or publishers. All enquiries should be directed to our offices: contact@unknowing.cc
