"OUT-OfSIGHT and OUT-OF-MIND what is in your drinking water".

There is a danger lurking in America's water systems. Join Potable Water Diving Contractor Ron Perrin, along with microbiologists and a former EPA employee as they discuss the problem. Ron Perrin is a diving contractor in Fort Worth Texas
Specializing in diving in potable water. Since 1997 his company has been inspecting and cleaning potable water storage tanks and towers. They have worked in 14 states. This has given him a very unique perspective on the country's drinking water distribution systems. Last year they inspected over 850 potable water storage tanks and cleaned about 150. The problem is about 700 needed to be cleaned. Many had never been cleaned. No regulation requires water tanks to be cleaned in most states.

Why does it matter?

A water storage tank is the last stop water makes between the water treatment plant and your tap. Over time sediment builds up on the floor of most storage tanks. This can add up to inches or even feet of sediment. Tank sediment can become a safe habitat for bacteria, protozoa, or viruses. Keeping the tank clean allows treatment chemicals to do the job they were designed to do. Water utility managers must understand the importance of keeping water storage tanks clean.

Distrust Everything

Distrust Everything is a call to imagination as a way out to the realism burdening our language and experience.

American artist Mirek Hardiker, former Stanford researcher, has built a gigantic (21 years on a daily base) archive of transcripts
of his dreams, which serve as a dataset. A generative neural network system 'reads' Hardiker's reports and generates new dreams from what is learnt from the dataset. The generated text serves as a screenplay for the entire film. Archetypal
characters and events thus seem to emerge from a
synthetic unconscious.

The work investigates the relationship between the human and unconscious through an intense and perturbing aesthetic experience. Born as a multichannel installation, the work was co-commissioned by a platform of institutions, including Elevate Festival and Superbudda.

AI Jetée AI Jetée

AI Jetée

"AI Jetée" is a shot-by-shot remake of Chris Marker's renowned 1962 photo-roman, "La Jetée," utilizing generative AI technology to reproduce the original film's visuals, music, and voiceover. This experimental endeavor explores the nature of authenticity and creativity in the age of artificial intelligence.

"La Jetée" itself is an iconic work, characterized by its post-apocalyptic narrative set in a war-torn Paris. The film employs a unique technique of using black and white still photographs to unfold the story, offering a haunting visual experience. It delves into themes of time travel, memory, and the hubris of human existence. The film's story was the inspiration for Terry Gilliam's, "12 Monkeys."

"AI Jetée," inspired by Marker's original masterpiece, reinterprets the familiar narrative with the assistance of generative AI. While replicating the film's components, this AI-driven process introduces an element of unpredictability, creating a strange take on the source material. The reproductions are by no means exact and in fact, often go hilariously wrong. Also, since the AI doesn't produce the same person twice, the main characters' appearance morphs into different versions of themselves throughout, which adds to the dreamlike nature of the film. It's like watching the original film as it spirals through the multiverse. The film asks the viewer to consider the interplay between the source and the recreation. It invites audiences to think about what the rise of this technology will do to our understanding of photography, musical composition, vocal performance, and cultural memory.
