Alan Warburton - FGBFAQ

2020

https://alanwarburton.co.uk/rgbfaq

Synthetic data is increasingly sought after as a ’clean’ alternative to real world data sets, which are often biased, unethically sourced or expensive to create. And while CGI data seems to avoid many of these pitfalls, my argument aims from the outset to consider whether the virtual world is as clean and steady as we think. I try to catalogue the ‘hacks’ used to construct the foundations of simulated worlds and suggest that the solutions of early computer graphics create a technical debt that might be less than ideal material on which to build the foundations of yet another generation of technology.

The web project ‘Photo of the Day (PhD)’ is a series of works paraphrasing a photo report series of the same title published on Hungary Matters, an online media channel of the Hungarian Public Service Media, written in English. Szacsva y selects works from the photos published daily on Hungary Matters and transforms them with a method specifically designed for this purpose, called ‘perinarrative retouch’. Every single detail of the manipulative process is recorded, building a narrative of moving images, enabling the artist to create a special type of technical image.

Szacsva y asked other artists to create sound tracks for the moving graphic images he created during the PhD project; the press photos visually manipulated and transformed by Szacsva y into moving images are therefore complemented with audio commentaries

Collaborating artists: Balázs Beöthy, Lőrinc Borsos, Roland Farkas, Judit Fischer, János Fodor, Ferenc Gróf, Nándor Hevesi, Zsolt Keserue, Tamás Komoróczky, Stranger Foreigner, Mike Nylons, György Orbán, András Ravasz, Kornél Szilágyi

PhD is part of “When Art(ist) Speaks” project, curated by Eszter Lázár and Edina Nagy

Vilém Flusser - 1988 interview about technical revolution

[profoundjargon]

Check out this technical image of a shoe I designed. I need new shoes (mine are very uncomfortable), but this is also a very interesting technical-image-generation interface. There are lots of micro-choices for each part of the shoe, so it really feels like my shoe. Additionally, the interface itself is an interactive technical image. It was interesting to explore my aesthetic experience while designing the shoe. I reacted very viscerally to different color and texture combinations, so the process of designing the shoe was a process of navigating a complex aesthetic topography or design-space. This final design feels balanced and tasteful to me. Earlier designs were way too bright and intense. This one includes green, purple, grey, and blue (the metal eyelets and the tongue of the shoe). Here's a link if you'd like to play with the interface and design your own shoe:http://www.adidas.com/us/product/custom/4000408_M?recipe=/configurator/services/miadidas-configurator/recipeService/recipeIdent/R1345730758969_NG/region/us/channel/1/partner/null&gender=Men Now you know EXACTLY what my new shoes will look like.

Is this art? I think so. The medium is Adidas Shoe Website and Factory.
