Better Not Tell You Now di Émilie Brout & Maxime Marion su Link Cabinet – Documentazione

Better Not Tell You Now é un’opera video generativa creata e presentata in anteprima per la mostra a Link Cabinet.

Émilie Brout & Maxime Marion – Better Not Tell You Now at Link Cabinet

The Link Art Center is proud to present Better Not Tell You Now, a new work by Émilie Brout & Maxime Marion. The show will be online at Link Cabinet from March 8 to April 7, 2017.
 
Better Not Tell You Now is a generative video created and presented for the first time at Link Cabinet.

Starting from this wide database the work automatically generates a recombinant text, always new and unique. The images displayed on the background are loaded in real-time, searched for keywords related to the text. (more…)
