Project documentation
& early prototypes
In this project, image generation technology is imaged through the visual metaphor of a square box. This series aims to explore different ways to visualise and transform the box of AI.
As a research practitioner in interactive code, Alexandra’s box expands outside of it through the concept of networking both within the algorithm as a system and outside as a social activity.
As a researcher through the medium of photography, Sara’s box is depicted through different frames, revealing the biases and stereotypes that reside in the database.
Through the practice of illustration, Vannes’s box has a sense of limitation and demotivation and conveys her love of illustration as a transforming box in different mediums.
