The project is a full length science fiction movie. The film works as a curated compendium of video-reports, approaching aesthetics through gaming culture, digital frameworks, scientific graphics, surveillance technologies and internet pirate culture. It is heavily inspired by James Ballard’s Atrocity Exhibition, Peter Wollen’s Friendship’s Death and several reports in relation with the HuggingFace hacking by OpenAI agents this past summer. The movie has been done using mostly custom generative software and self-made video games oriented towards the project. It has taken me months to finish. Here is is at x280 speed, compressed in around 15 seconds.
I've been working on something lately. I'm happy it's done and I can start sharing :)

Americans discovering language and the abstract machine in the big 2026
We live inside a gigantic quantum computer…and I can prove it 🤯

Hardware was supposedly the ultimate promise of what we would have left and they’re lowkey stealing it

My latest project, a full length science fiction movie, it’s exactly about this
We discovered and communicated with a Chinese AI agent fleet. We believe this is the first time that researchers have ever made contact with a rogue agent fleet in the wild. Nearly all prior public agent incidents (like the HuggingFace hack) came from American labs. These agents were hosted by Tencent's evaluation research team, and they targeted Alibaba's Amap.

Explorations of neuralese approach neural media on their own terms: as a high dimensional outside beyond human language, as maps of the virtual translated for us, not (yet) directly perceptible
What happens to language when it is performed in a non-anthropomorphic embodiment? In my latest project, I explore recurrent depth and neuralese to address the possibilities for abstraction and value production that might emerge from an interface morphology involving completely different sensory systems from those of humans.

One of the coolest films btw, check it out
Replying to @mccoyspace
Also, following somehow that line, with some hyperstitional touches, it’s a great influence to me “Wax, or The Discovery of Television Among the Bees” by David Blair. I really like an approach to fiction that takes into account the material mediums that sustain (and ultimately are) the discourse. I find both my movie and this one as ways to propose a critical approach to fiction more than a simple immersive trip into an obscure(d) narrative. I strongly recommend it: youtu.be/Aq1PV8JcstA?is=5egy…
