Decisive: Blurring the Lines

In Decisive: Blurring the Lines, Arun Mista speaks with Henry Rice who discusses the interplay of modern technology, photography, and artificial intelligence. Using an iPhone 11 Pro’s QuickTake Video feature to capture five-second clips, he extracted 180 still images, which were then analysed for their semiotic content by ChatGPT-4.0. Through Midjourney, 180 AI-generated images were created to mirror the originals, blending human experience with machine interpretation. This collection of 360 images critiques the superficiality of networked visuals while exploring the dynamic relationship between individual identity and globalised culture. Rice's work reflects the shifting boundaries of photographic reality in an AI-driven age.
