Content-aware-fill the gaps within historical records, like one fills a selected area of pixels in common image editing software. Or do not. Augmentation of any knowledge with synthetic epistemics of computed automations is inevitable. Or is it? Content Aware Studies is currently on view at Charim Galerie, Dorotheergasse, Vienna, as part of the curated by_ Vienna festival, actually curated by @julesandaet. Marble, polyamide, machine learning algorithms, 3D scanning, 3D printing, video installation; Began in 2017, the series of works is an inquiry into reverse-archeology via technologies of artificial neural networks & machine learning systems to reconstruct missing fragments within the sculptures of classical antiquity as well as to exercise speculative object-oriented historicism of never-existed, yet algorithmically genuine, documents of synthetic histories. As always I remain beyond thankful to everyone who worked with me on this series over the years.
