Mirror Index (7’26) is a two-channel video installation exploring how fabulation, finance, and lack of societal transparency can fabricate artificial realities.

Drawing from a series of public speeches by Swedish political and economic figures, Myyri uses machine learning tools to generate voice-cloned narrators—artificial speakers that reverberate real-world justifications for austerity, recession, and the shifting of burdens onto taxpayers and consumers. Touching on the Geymüller banking family’s decline in Sweden—Mirror Index portrays their former estate as a picturesque, ghost story-like backdrop. These digital narrators are layered with accounts of spectral phenomena said to haunt the manor according to locals, merging mythic and economic elements in its Mise-en-scène.

Assuming the visual language of documentary, Mirror Index combines found footage, archival imagery, and interviews to trace how “technocratic realism” takes root—a kind of carnival-mirror where elevated perspectives promise clarity, yet are inherently distorted.
