Description

Almost a Manifesto, from the Latin "manifestus", verbatim "taken with the hand", caught red-handed, in the act. Hands drawn by AI: so ugly that become amazing. What if these ugly hands, which are in some way the stylistic signature of AI – the consistency of AI while drawing hands is unbelievable – are not a bug, but a feature? The focus of our research is not on hands at all, but on our relationship with technology, as human beings, the all-too-human faculty of determining a subversive détournement on given things, escaping the prisons of normative thinking, opening portals everywhere, finding the beauty of imperfection, embracing diversity. Therefore, let's bring the Flaw to the center of the composition, exalt the system glitches, let the AI be itself and not a semantic misunderstanding, transform the error into a signature, and delegate to the human the task of interpretation, which is his own. This is an aesthetic task, intended as the opposite of un-esthetic, as the opposite of that art/sign that already tells you everything you need to know, despising your mental qualities, anesthetizing you! Therefore, hooray for not-five-fingered hands! Because you are looking at the sixth finger rather than the moon that is being pointed to! And when someone will fix the bug one day, there will be no fingers left to point to anything. We invite all artists out there interested in AI "bugs" as a sublime form of art to join our research. Come forward below, embrace the flaw: don't fix it! [Original sound by BLACK7EVEN]
