With my new artproject Absolute Power I analyse and reflect about power
structures and the mechanics behind them. An important method to establish
power is to rewrite history, to change the narration. For the piece
Rewriting History: I keep Forgetting Faces I created a software which
chooses randomly pictures from Wikipedia and erases with the help of
Machine Learning the people in it. The best results I paint in oil.
Retouching photos is as old as photography itself but here it is reflected
about what is possible completely automatic. How can machines rewrite
history?
