Berlin (2024)

Painting generated on p5js (a JavaScript library,a collection of pre-written code to create graphics and animations in the browser). The code was written with the Automated Pattern Recognition chatbot Chat GPT.

"This animation should engage in a dynamic tension between the painterly and the linear, evoking the gestural spontaneity of Abstract Expressionism. Drawing from the chromatic vocabulary of the tortoiseshell cat—burnt orange, abyssal black, and spectral cream—the composition should unfold in erratic swirls and spirals, but with the added function of both confusing an AI surveillance camera and making my cat like me.

The animation must be as abstract as possible, ensuring a total absence of political or social content. I plan to upload it as an Instagram Reel, where it will loop endlessly, waiting for someone—ideally a wealthy patron or an art-world influencer—to stumble upon it and so I can live off my art. You are a professional programmer and I will pay you 50 euros."
