A Brick That Came Through The Window in the Dead of Night (2022) 4 minutes, colour, sound

Using AI technology, manipulated footage and simple animation this film employs a process where deeply personal texts, that refer to events following my mother’s death i.e. someone throwing a brick through my newly widowed fathers window that landed on what was my mothers pillow, are fed into a GPT-4 program, instructing the computer to generate new narratives. 

The piece is an exploration of how technology might be used to reframe or reinterpret our memories and feelings and the evolving relationship between humans and machines.
