A Picture Can't Take Me

Cibelle Cavalli Bastos' "A Picture Can’t Take Me" innovatively fuses photography, AI-generated music, and augmented reality, challenging traditional notions of identity representation in art. The work contrasts visual and auditory elements: music, shaped by early GPT-2 model interactions, is encoded onto a vinyl record, which also displays an image from the machine learning model. The interactive experience is enriched through augmented reality, activated as the record plays, inviting an exploration of identity beyond conventional frameworks. 'A Picture Can’t Take Me' is presented by Synthesis Gallery from Berlin, Germany, a leading cultural institution specializing in extended reality art.
