The artist and algorithm celebrate the obfuscation of legibility // visibility in joyous and optimistic terms, using abstraction as a playful rebellion against all those things which keep us disconnected from the void.

The Convergence of Many into One

This is an ongoing experiment created by Duncan Figurski, August Luhrs and Rebecca Walden. This iteration was presented as an installation and performance series at the Level Gallery at Rockella Space in Queens NYC.

Schizo Posting

This Multimedia Installation exhibited at Rockella Space was a further development of the “Dollar Store OuroBoros” and the “Perpetual Abstraction Series”. 

Dollarstore Ouroboros

The Dollarstore Ouroboros is a 36 foot long canvas loop that rotates once every 34 minutes. Above it sits a camera which reads and converts the brush strokes into sounds. It is the first module in a growing ecosystem of sculptures.

(Perpetual Abstraction)

What reductionist approach does AI have on our lives?  There are hard limitations to this software, potentially the most obvious is the fact that abstract or variegated parts of this world are shimied into concise classifications.

They are rendered finite, course and marketable.
