Search and Destroy

Search and Destroy (working title) (2026) is a series of works which look how algorithms see our visual world. The main part is a multi-channel video, where a custom-made algorithm analyses various video clips. The viewer doesn't see the original video, only the renditions of information on a white background. These include tracking of faces, bodies, camera movement, compression, objects etc.

Mobile phone camera filters, self-driving cars, passport control machines and other new technologies make our lives easier, yet at the same time they use many of the same technologies used by AI warfare, surveilance systems and similar.

Experimental multi-channel documentary, series of prints and a book.

I wanted to create somethign which first feels fun and lighthearted but then evolves into something more sinister and troubling, echoing the style of my previous work Collateral.
