Opera Lab Berlin's "Echo 2050" delved into a future where AI deity "A.I. Ursula" dominates the art world, absorbing everything into her "Art Matrix" to create chaos and masterpieces. By 2050, she wages a ruthless cultural war against her human creators, demanding total control and eliminating artistic freedom. Rebels face exclusion in a caged freak show. Lacking the human essence of art, "A.I. Ursula" seeks surviving virtuosos to steal their souls and complete her upload. "Echo 2050" examined the future of human-AI relations, the fate of the forgotten, and art's role in an AI-driven world. This vibrant, chaotic production captured the beginning of a revolution where the future is both now and extraordinarily virtuosic.

The rich text element allows you to create and format headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, images, and video all in one place instead of having to add and format them individually. Just double-click and easily create content.
A rich text element can be used with static or dynamic content. For static content, just drop it into any page and begin editing. For dynamic content, add a rich text field to any collection and then connect a rich text element to that field in the settings panel. Voila!
Headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, figures, images, and figure captions can all be styled after a class is added to the rich text element using the "When inside of" nested selector system.
