Sine Waves (Variations on OneSecond), 2024, 35mm, 1125 frames

Untitled (Neural Networks) is a series of experimental large-format photograms and abstract 35mm films.

Untitled (Neural Networks, nn_oxb), 2020

The 1,440-frame film builds on the Untitled(Neural Networks/ nn_3d) photograms, its score is generated by an artificial neural network coded in Python. The film explores the idea of the externalization of cognition which occurs through the advent of artificial intelligence, and the recursive principles it relies on. Through the flicker, the work resonates and interferes with the very system that initially constituted the model for its own structure: the nervous system.

For Untitled (Neural Network, nn_oxb/eeg_FD), the rhythmic stimuli generated by the initial neural network film [Untitled (Neural Network, nn_oxb/1, 2020)] serve as an input signal to the viewer to induce an output signal in the form of a physiological reaction that can be measured and recorded via electroencephalography.
The rhythmic oscillations in the recorded neural activity are then transposed into numerical series, processed in MATLAB/FieldTrip and used to compose a new film (nn_oxb/eeg_FD).

Untitled (Neural networks, nn_3d) is a series of large-format, grid-like photograms generated by visualizing the computations of an artificial neural network during its training phase. The weight adjustments and numeric alterations performed by the network are transposed into an animated 40 × 60 pixel matrix and projected onto silver gelatin paper. Each pixel square scintillates independently for the duration of the training phase, which in turn determines the exposure time of the print.
