Lakbay's work explores the precarious balance between human cognition, the preservation of knowledge, and the ever-present threat of misinformation, all viewed through the lens of speculative system dynamics. Deeply influenced by both human psychology and the principles of biomimicry, The works challenge the inherent assumptions about information ecosystems by creating abstract models, and the potential consequences of their disruption. Rather than offering solutions, Lakbay’s work aims to raise profound questions aobout truth and perception. The design of simulations becomes a tool for speculative inquiry, mimicking life and creating conceptual artefacts. Drawing inspiration from intricate Philippine oral traditions, the works transform cultural narratives into abstract principles of systems theory. Lakbay weaves together observations of the natural world with rigorous analytical frameworks, creating a space for contemplation on the human condition. Lakbay’s theoretical architectures reflect a blend of academic research, personal reflection, and speculative scenarios, presented as both structured diagrams and narrative explorations. Lakbay invites the reflection and the disruption of the current knowledge.
