Abstract

Hidden Incidents of Animal Euthanasia is an interactive art display that represents secondary pentobarbital poisoning among multi-species. This work combines incident data, visualization and sonification, 3D AI generative techniques, and interactions to enable the audiences to explore the kinship of human-animal interaction under euthanasia. Moreover, it delves into the intricate dynamics of dominance and affection that define our interactions with other sentient beings, offering a platform for critical engagement and reflection. This considered approach reveals an examination of the ethical dimensions and intricacies surrounding humane euthanasia practices, particularly the usage of synthetic drugs.
