Lost In IterationI:The Dream That Dreams

Inspiration: Glitches, Morphs and Alterations of Generative AI. A prompt is a prompt is a prompt.

What it does: The video unfolds as a visual hallucination: The images flicker through an endless loop of transformations. Faces multiply, blur, and dissolve; bodies twist into impossible forms.

A woman, perhaps many, appear, dissolving and reappearing in glitch-ridden loops. Her body becomes a mutable surface, shaped by systems that remember and forget. A man’s voice interjects-not with certainty, but with questions: Who dreams these images? Whose desire do they reflect?

The visual language is marked by algorithmic errors, digital textures, and distortions that undermine clarity. The installation offers no clear resolution. Instead, it presents a space of perpetual transition, a moment caught between observation and a feverish nightmare, between projection and reality. A dreamlike inquiry into how art is defined in a time when AI might develop its own „intent“. Does artistic meaning shift from creation to reception? Is generative AI a vast ocean of our collective subconscious, surfacing visions that blur the line between private memory and shared cultural dreams? Perhaps, in the near future, we won’t merely dream images, they might begin to dream us.

How we built it: From deformed AI Footage. Cut and processes with Adobe. Asking questions to Chat GPT and finishing it with a poem.

Challenges we ran into: Time

Accomplishments that we're proud of: It really became the feverish dream, I set out for.

What we learned: Morphs and glitches have their own value. Whose fantasy is it?

What's next for Lost In IterationI:The Dream That Dreams: It's showtime.
