'Galaxy'
03:48min cm
Digital animation with sound

The narrator in »Galaxy« is technology itself. The voice over of the animation was generated with the assistance of an early text-based AI and offers an interpretation of an encounter of love and disappointment between the two characters Touch and Long Swipe. Odd deviations in the syntax and narrative logic allow the viewer to reflect on our social imprint of how stories are expected to be told and how technology is programmed to follow these perceptions, especially because here the simulation is far from perfect. The mise en scéne is a fly through a computer-generated galaxy of objects and images reminiscent of the organic, dismembered and fragmented, creating a dramatic, cinematic atmosphere.
