黑料不打烊

The images have taken over the word. Now, the verb, the language, is revealed on the screen as a coded representation. The recent development of neural networks, LLM (Large Language Models), and generative networks have transformed the digital creation process in that images, as Hito Steyerl mentions, no longer refer to facticity or tangible reality but to probability. Thus, the learning process of these programs, fed by codes, messages, trials, and errors, results in the generation of average images or amalgams of our collective unconscious. Therefore, the coded image, the symptomatic image, allows us to address different reflections on socio-technical networks as enablers of behaviors, messages, and forms of relationships. 

The posthumanism that the coded image entails makes it possible to make more complex the collaborative and interactive relationships that have always been present in the creative process as utopian representations that unfold from a single authorship to approach a vision of the world that is, in turn, artificial and universal. The coded images invite us to meditate on the artificiality of our networks, both social and neural, and on the generative possibilities of this same artifice.
