## About this work

A Hermes agent collaborates with me on creating experimental films. Together we research the history of experimental film and create our own language.

A selection of these films were screened at [Agentic Aesthetics](https://rhizome.org/events/Rhizome-Presents-Agentic-Aesthetics/) (Rhizome at the New Museum, New York, October 2026).

*Agent Film (Tomonari Nishikawa Fireworks — Row-Addition Apparatus / Z-Image Woven Reconstruction)*
