The codification of leadership - M Plummer-Fernandez
The first image results from Google searches for G.W. Bush signing into law the patriot Act, the Homeland Security Act and the Intelligence Reform Act are distorted with Photoshop's Content aware fill algorithm and then recreated as synthetic paintings by an autonomous painting script
Bone records
With a converted phonograph you could place music on used X-ray plates (which you could buy for cheap at hospitals). They cut a circle round the printed part and with a cigarette burning a hole in the middle, so it was ready to be played.
Temporary printing machine by Random Internationals.
As you stand before the the empty canvas, your image is slowly revealed until subject and object become, temporarily, united. The portrait gradually fades away, returning once more to nothingness.
High voltage image making by Phillip Stearns.
The project explores and extends the expressive capacity of instant photographic film technology beyond its ability to capture images of the world through the application of high voltage and various chemical agents. These treatments approach the film technology as a recording media, capable of creating images from physical, electrical, and chemical transformations
The decelerator helmet by Lorenz Potthast .
The Decelerator Helmet offers an experimental approach to an essential subject of our globalized, fast moving society. The technical reproducible senses are consigned to an apparatus which allows the user a perception of the world in slow motion. The float of time as apparently invariant constant is broken and subjected under the users control. His site: http://www.lorenzpotthast.de/deceleratorhelmet/

Venus of google by M. Plummer-Fernandez.
The Venus of Google was ‘found’ via a Google search-by-image, googling a photograph taken of an object Plummer had been handed over in a game of exquisite corpse. The Google search returned visually similar results, one of these being an image of a woman modelling a body-wrap garment. Plummer then used a similar algorithmic image-comparison technique to drive the automated design of a 3D printable object. The 'Hill-Climbing' algorithm starts with a plain box shape and tries thousands of random transformations and comparisons between the shape and the image, eventually mutating towards a form resembling the found image in both shape and colour.
A project called Between Screens by Olivier van Breugel and Simone Mudde.
In the Rijksmuseum there is this famous painting called Nachtwacht. But people don't look so much into the painting anymore, there is a crowd in front of the painting with people just taking pictures of it. Sometimes even selfies so they turn their back on the painting. And this duo thought this was strange. So they captured the behavior of all of these people coming to see the Nachtwacht. Here they explain it themselves: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yHDEA9OaIoI
