About the artwork
This film is the continuation of my work on the movement of human bodies. The realm of riots, crowd movements, and urban confrontations is undeniably cinematic. I aimed to explore a highly cinematic visual environment by incorporating elements of violence, smoke, and explosions to make it as impactful as possible and understand how artificial intelligence would react. The introduction of animals came later, in an attempt to bring a kind of poetry into the midst of the violence.

Audio explanation
Listen to BeyondHuman discuss this work.
Beyond Human is an artist who embarked on his artistic journey as a photographer, gradually expanding his practice to directing and creating narratives in short films, music videos, and advertisements. His directorial ventures have consistently entwined him with emerging technologies, from post-production and 3D to his most recent exploration of AI.
Positioned as one of the pioneers in the inaugural wave of AI artists, Beyond Human is dedicated to unraveling novel aesthetics and challenging our evolving relationship with this transformative technology. He traverses the distortions of reality by skillfully reinventing events from both the past and contemporary world. Although rooted in fiction, his narrative possesses an uncanny authenticity, navigating the strange, the bizarre, and the incongruous. The boundary between the real and the unreal becomes elusive, challenging the viewer and prompting contemplation on their perceptions of images and the nature of reality.
