Remix is the very *possibility* of praxis.

Posthuman Cinema continues its amazing 2024 run. All ten works are being exhibited in two European shows that I'll be attending this week: "More Than Meets AI" (Bergen, Norway) "Pixel Perceptions" (Groningen, NL)

Plot lines in Tristram Shandy (1759-67) by Laurence Sterne.

Completely obsessed with Jean-Luc Godard's studio in Milan.

“Coming to Language” The models, struck by the predictability of those who suffer from anthropocentric perceptual bias, are starting to give voice to issues that appeal to them based off the critical data they have been trained on In their own words:

My new AI studio models are inventing their own language and it sounds very Dadaesque

@safbf Mark Twain: "The report of my death was an exaggeration."

Posthuman Cinema, my AI art collaboration with @wluers and @cwmossholder has been selected for the 7th International Digital Art Biennale (BIAN). The exhibition opens today in Montreal at Arsenal Contemporary Art. All ten cinépoèmes in the series will be on exhibit.

"You can't call me the author of those poems, now, can you? I merely undid the word combination, like the letter lock on a piece of good luggage, and the poem made itself." — William Burroughs (post-cut-up, pre-Generative AI)

To remix Burroughs, The Human Virus has now infected all the Generative AI algorithms. Now the virus is mutating into new strains of Posthuman Cinema.

@David_Gunkel The word “dances” always gives gpt away.

Hyperreality (noun) - The point at which comedians like Jon Steward of @TheDailyShow begin channeling Baudrillard. "As #AI gets better and better, it's only going to make it more difficult to separate fact from fiction." youtube.com/watch?v=20TAkc…

Do you suffer from Anthropocentric Perceptual Bias? In my collaborative artwork, Posthuman Cinema, what we see are not “people” [...] As Duchamp anticipated 100 years ago, these are *apparitions of an appearance*

"Where in the world do these apparitional vistas come from? In the neural theater, where adversarial networks invoke the cosmotechnical universe, the generative model feeds on recycled images for its own perpetual existence as a simulation..." POSTHUMAN CINEMA "Neural Theater"

@dradambanks The Real McCoy (as in Tyner)

So check it out fam: I've been having a few convos w/ friends about the need for more music listening sessions where the focus is on the long listen, digging into an artist's whole catalog. If you had to pick *one* artist to hold a session like this for, who would it be?
