Time as meaning

Audiovisual installation about memory and nostalgic attachment. A montage is generated by searching a video corpus through vector-similarity, organising clips using natural language and confidence scores. A language model dictates the sequence and continuously generates the on-screen text, producing an endless stream in which the AI appears to talk to itself.

We focus on practical futures where natural language can benefit video editing, exploring correlation by coordination. Both composition and production was done by Luís Arandas and Marco Jerónimo, exhibition at VAF, Denmark (2022).
