Circuit-based drudgery in the pursuit of an intelligence to surpass our own has led to the emergence of information and data which tests our perception and increases our suspicious nature - is what we see and hear reliable at all?
Creating imagery with the sole intention of pursuing objectivity and truth is the realm of dataset creation. These involve massive quantities of multi-format/multi-spectral images and are the basis of informing AI on specific ground-truths (e.g. for facial recognition, what differentiates a 'landscape' from a 'portrait' and so on). Formal, inaccessible but often aesthetically stimulating images are the result of these kinds of scientific or interrogative ways of creating data.
Using processes found in these datasets and academic texts this document is a contradiction (a combination of methodologies, original/appropriated, taken out of context, dressed up as something it is not) it has no apparent value insofar as the pursuit of objectivity; and in being this, ironically, it is possible we learnt something anyway.
