Stuttering video of distorted flowers in motion

Cellular Reconstruction

Cellular Reconstruction
2min, digital video found 16mm film and optical sound

While not explicitly a machine learning film, conceptually it is an exploration of the harms science can create trying to solve pre-existing problems. Also a companion piece to Floral Zombification via Attention Node Networks.

I wrote custom software to laserprint the lost cyan layer back to this found footage film.
