Can I see like a planet? and other questions for chatbots
2023
The paintings included in the installation are created using algorithmic sets of directions and diagrams. Some hold LED light displays with text derived from a series of “collaborative” writing sessions with a language model-based chatbot. A large-scale video projection is created using MAX MSP, a software-based image generator. This program runs automatically, in real time, and continuously selects random .jpeg and .mov files from separate folders, mapping them onto a set of platonic solids that rotate, stretch, and fracture within the pictorial frame. A code-based kinetic sound sculpture fills the space with tones and digital compositions relating to planetary frequencies.
