‘Unglitch’ What stood out to me most about this project was the way it was presented. I loved the sheet and projection of the video. I’ve always been opposed to the idea of facing the advance in technologies when it comes to AI as I find it quite daunting, however, this representation of it made it seem reasonably simple and easy to digest. It was interesting to consider how AI has made its way into our everyday lives, and how advanced it can be. I really liked the composition of the video, with ‘I’m not a robot’ notifications interrupting images, something everyone is very familiar with when using the internet. I liked the way they juxtaposed everyday footage of civilians swimming, people in the countryside with AI. The website was also very immersive and the interviews were really interesting. The pop up questions looked very early 2000’s in their layout, with old style mac pop up boxes. I liked how everything was stylistic yet practical.
Another project I was drawn to was ‘The Many Lives Of The Capitol’. Having attended the capitol in previous classes for screenings I was intrigued to find out more about its history. The video was very informative, they spread out the information in a way that was easy to understand.
‘Something in the nothing’ is a poetic experimental film showcasing the trite yet beautiful aspects of life. I really resonated with this video, I felt that it was very calming to watch and had meditative elements to it. I liked the use of sound and imagery. It was very poetic and visually encapsulating.
