I've been asked if the display is showing a recorded video, if it's AI generated, or surprised to learn that the control panel is actually functional and not a prop, so probably best to be clear: Glitchbox is a functional playable instrument with tactile controls that respond to your touch, immediately changing what you see and hear (sound ON 🎶)
Part of the aim of this work is to show how generative systems don't only exist "somewhere else" as a formal description in inaccessible computer code or at "sometime else" as the residue of a program executed in the past. Generative systems can be interactive and participatory - an embodied sensual experience that is immediately responsive.
Video and audio synths were revolutionary, in contrast to film or tape, because of immediacy, it closed that feedback loop: you are part of the system. Which has always been the case, but it just foregrounds it. Where do you end and tool begins? Where does author and audience begin and end? Study Stiegler, study Roy Ascott. Despite our need for categorization, hierarchy, the reality is that everything is connected in complicated ways, and it's not always clear who is steering.View quoted post on X
