SYNOPSIS:

MELTDOWN: A stream of audio-visual material interweaving environmental, cultural and social crises, addressing exploitation of both natural and human resources, and the overall meltdown of environmental and economical balancing systems. The work overflows the viewer with images and sounds collected from online media and personal filming, echoing superfluous information, waste, disasters, unrest and climate damage.

SYNOPSIS:

SOMEWHERE WE LIVE IN LITTLE LOOPS: A collaboration with a machine-learning based AI technology of next-frame prediction. The computerised synthesis of images by a neural network learns video clips and then guesses how they will continue, recreating them in the process. The reborn video images are then woven together into an audio-visual poem, revealing both computer and human cognition processes and raising reflections regarding the implications and future of this new technology.
