32 HOUSES
32 houses is an inquiry into artificial intelligence and machine learning, and the fuzzy, nostalgic, ultimately false aura that a childhood in suburbia evokes. What happens when an AI is supplied with photographs of such homes from my own neighborhood and asked to synthesize them? Will it discover an ideal form, or is it impossible to resolve; the image of house/home as slippery as its concept?
Through repeated acts of translation between myself and the AI, between digital generation and analog labor in the form of hand stitched work, I am generating a feedback loop that both loses and gains information along the way. The glitchiness of my own memory is reflected back at me as I make and remake my childhood home.
