## Pathways

### [Computational Films](https://artificial-images.com/pathways/computational-films.md)

Films shaped by rules, sorting, procedural editing, and machine-guided montage.

Moving-image work in which software is not just a production tool but an editorial collaborator. Sorting systems, procedural rules, and model-guided decisions shape rhythm, duration, and sequence.

Projects (11): Err Me Z, Love Song Sing-Along (BBVDAY2026), Middle C, BBVDAY 2025½, Phantoms of Endless Day, Stop Making Sense, Anime, •, The Kiss (#bbvday2024), #bbvday2022, Scream Scenes

### [Material Machines](https://artificial-images.com/pathways/material-machines.md)

Digital systems returned to film, paper, plotting, and handmade image-making.

These projects move generated and computational images back into physical processes: 16mm film, contact printing, pen plotting, collage, and other forms of handmade transformation.

Projects (12): Heavens, Selfie Song, Stop Making Sense, Anime, B.K.S.O.M., Black Sun Electro Static, •, A Film Etched in Bark, NYcelium Network, Cellular Reconstruction, The Fossil Record, Scream Scenes

### [Models Made Here](https://artificial-images.com/pathways/models-made-here.md)

Projects built around trained, adapted, or artist-specific generative models.

Model-building as studio practice: custom datasets, trained networks, and adapted systems whose behavior becomes part of the work’s visual identity.

Projects (22): Grá DJ Flyers, 11 Rudniks, BBVDAY 2025½, Phantoms of Endless Day, Selfie Song, Chroma01, Floral Zombification Via Attention Node Networks, The Transmitter, The Fossil Record, Grá Website, Scream Scenes, #bbvday2021, Cash or Credit, No Crypto, Linnaeus Pip, New York Times OnTech, Selling Surfing in Space, #bbvday2020, New York Times Sunday Review Graphics, Extinguished, 99 Ways to use a Dataset, GAN Series B, GAN Series A

### [Commissioned Systems](https://artificial-images.com/pathways/commissioned-systems.md)

Editorial and client work where the technical method is part of the visual language.

Collaborations, commissions, and editorial systems in which the process had to communicate alongside the image—across magazines, installations, identities, and ongoing client relationships.

Projects (10): Grá DJ Flyers, Phantoms of Endless Day, The Transmitter, Commercial Type Food Issue, Grá Website, New York Times OnTech, New Yorker Illustration, HP Innovation Magazine, New York Times Sunday Review Graphics, Baffler Magazine

### [Printed Intelligence](https://artificial-images.com/pathways/printed-intelligence.md)

Machine-made images that become prints, plots, pages, and physical artifacts.

Generative images made tangible through ink, plotters, publications, and editioned objects. The output is shaped as much by printing and fabrication as by computation.

Projects (10): Cellular Reconstruction, The Fossil Record, #bbvday2021, New Yorker Illustration, #bbvday2020, HP Innovation Magazine, New York Times Sunday Review Graphics, Extinguished, GAN Series B, GAN Series A

### [Valentine Machines](https://artificial-images.com/pathways/valentine-machines.md)

Love songs, prints, collages, and computational romance from the recurring BBVDAY series.

An evolving annual series that uses Valentine’s Day as a reason to revisit intimacy, repetition, collage, music, and whatever computational method is currently closest at hand.

Projects (6): Love Song Sing-Along (BBVDAY2026), BBVDAY 2025½, The Kiss (#bbvday2024), #bbvday2022, #bbvday2021, #bbvday2020
