Strange fishe (noper)
Video, 2023
About the artwork
Another outcome of experimental curiosity, I began this piece wondering if and how AI would interpret a tv used as a fish tank. With lots of trial and error, it was finally producing exactly what I was imagining. Ever since I was a child, I loved the frutiger aero aesthetic of fish tanks. Rather than having an actual fish tank, you could use a built in screensaver! In my mind, these marine aesthetics (seen all over in the early 2000s) really encapsulate a perfect corporate and dystopian message.
