NEW BOOK! David Fathi – The Machine Seems To Need A Ghost “This book is the culmination of my last three years of thinking and experimenting with generative AI technology, and especially last year’s sudden acceleration. The images contained are entirely generated with tools accessible to the general public and question the nature of photography and art. In the future, synthetic images will be fed back into the datasets of the tools that created them, creating a feedback loop where clichés, stereotypes and biases replicate and expand until possible collapse. This book is organized in three chapters / metaphors (The Museum, The Feedback Loop, The Black Hole) to help us think and plan what will become of images and media when trapped in a never ending cycle of nostalgia and self-reference.” David Fathi
