[NetBehaviour] Call for Participation: Models for Making Distance

Models For Making Distance will be a print zine gathering a multiplicity of manifestos, writing and instructions for art that confounds, confuses and misuses algorithmic systems for the pleasure of human observers or actors. It is a playful but earnest bid for placing distance between ourselves

Re: [NetBehaviour] Mastodon

Right now things are a bit unstable, because Mastodon relies on local servers, many of which are being slammed. If a server is down, or busy, then syncing up things like the timeline or search functions slow down (or go down) as well. If you try again later, you may find that folks who did not

Hi all, Wanted to share a new piece of work created for an art & research residency, “Excavations: Governance Archeology for the Future of the Internet,” created by UCBoulder and King’s College, London: https://excavations.digital/ The goal was to research pre-digital forms of governance and

Re: [NetBehaviour] analogy and AI poetry

Max, Paul & all; Thanks for all the thought-provoking links, everyone. Sometimes there are shades of panic in the way I see AI art. It’s like the machine is getting deep into my psyche, colonizing the culture as data and spitting something out that barely resembles art or beauty or play. I think

Re: [NetBehaviour] The Uncanny Vibe

Sorry Alan, to be clear I don’t think machines have an unconscious either. I should have been more precise: I’m talking about the tools of interpretation for the machine’s output, especially if one approaches generated text in a psychoanalytic framework (Freudian / Lacanian). There are

Re: [NetBehaviour] The Uncanny Vibe

Thanks Alan! Agree that the body can be lost in this music. From my early days of looking at (vs creating) AI sounds and art, one of the questions I kept coming back to is, "why do we care?" I'm still a bit of a surrealist: I see art as a way of bringing about what is otherwise unconscious, and I

Re: [NetBehaviour] GPT3 sources

Hi Patrick, You can request access to the beta of the API for GPT3 through OpenAI. I have seen some for GPT2 — particularly RunwayML and Inferkit, though I have to steer people away from Inferkit as it’s stupidly expensive. For GPT3 I haven’t seen too many that work very well, but I’d love to

[NetBehaviour] The Uncanny Vibe

Hi everyone. Here's an experimental text. For a while now, I have been creating pop music in collaboration with machine learning systems in a project called The Organizing Committee . The lyrics are generated, mostly, from a version of the OpenAI GPT-2

Re: [NetBehaviour] Work in Progress: Blockchain Temporalities

Great work. Struck by the absence of “blockchain” from the original white paper and the wide possibility of reimagining the “timestamp server.” The blockchain has always had a gears-in-clocks aspect of it for me. I explained it to some Swiss folks this way once. In San Francisco I explained
