2004 Rockefeller New Media Foundation Proposal
Martinez, Daniel J.
My interest is in synthetic intelligence, the osculating space between the machine phylum and artificial intelligence that desires qualities of becoming human. War in the age of intelligent machines incorporated into the strategies of contemporary desire. The aesthetic questions of the possible compression of paradox and contradiction into the cyborg that simulates human behavior and presence through an exploration of its strange loops of chaos and social dysfunction. To stand in the presence of the intelligent machines and wonder if we abandoned beauty and enlightenment.
