The Pørnøgraphər
A video call and three men struggling to understand one another despite their attempt to use English. A gaze from above – or from somewhere else – and a computer that seems to transform into the Tower of Babel. A journey into the decayed flesh of images, toward the knowledge of their creator, toward the discovery of something intimate about themselves in a place where bodies appear for what they are. And then, him.

HARIEL
HARIEL is an Italian collective dedicated to cinema made using artificial intelligence. Founded by Pietro Lafiandra, Flavio Pizzorno, and Andrea Rossini, HARIEL explores the new aesthetics emerging from the use of both closed-source and open-source generative models. Their Humanist Manifesto for AI Cinema represents the first attempt to formalize a culturological approach to algorithmic images.
