Exploring AI cloning, imitation, and how machines reflect or distort the
ways humans (or machines) think of themselves: when machines mirror us,
what remains uniquely human? We're looking for 1-second video works
exploring the complex relationship between AI and human identity and
cognition, whether artistic, conceptual, philosophical, or other
interpretations or reflections. When algorithms can mimic our voices,
faces, and even our creativity, we ask: What is a mirror now? Is it a
reflection, a copy, or something else entirely? What happens when the echo
is more perfect than the original? What if we're mirroring a specific,
limited machine called 'human', and that in our vanity we feel our identity
threatened instead of feeling humbled by being mirrored by a more powerful,
general intelligence? Your 1-second video could be a concentrated burst of
thought, a glimpse into the uncanny valley, or perhaps an absurd, profound
reflection on the nature of being (human or machine). We encourage
approaches that use humor, visual poetry, digital and conceptual art to
challenge our perceptions. May your work be a flash of insight, a 1-second
portal into the core of a digital identity crisis.
