Failed memories- getting closer

Solid afternoon.

 “These friends discussed Metaphysics all that afternoon, the discussion was too theoretical, so their memory was modified in a physical way.”

 
 

Here is the second collection of my “failed memories”, this time i used more geometrical modification and some fragmented glitch algorithm and less random fragments. Iam trying to concentrate more on the narratives and use the past stories of my own family to create these stories.

 
 

 
 
 

Mr Stein’s fear
 

“He was a solid, well situated simple man. He went to church every day, when it was necessary. But one day he realised that he has doubts. “

 

 
Eva’s glamour
 

“One day she wasnt able to drink water anymore, just champagne. But from the bubbles which is highly consists in the chaimpgne she become paranoid.”

 

 
 
 

Samuels war.
 

“It was his war or her fiances war, doesnt matter right now, because he didnt come back anymore.”

Touch.GL vs. failed memories

Iam experimenting with touch.GL and Failed Memories. Here are the first results. What i really like, is the way how i can have direct acces to the  composition, i mean i can use my own fingers to place the image errors. In the code i used many random parameters, so these compositions  are all unique, there is no undo and option to create the same transformation again. This is why i think touch.gl is a good tool, because iam spending more and more time to work on the composition side.

wayne and joseph

“this memory was captured in 1976 when wayne and joseph decided to remain friends for the rest of their life. Unfortunately Joseph became unstabile and decided to stop all the relations with the external world. This transformation shows, how his memory changed after this crisis. “

Failed memory of Leo & Pipo

French artists Leo&Pipo have been asking me to participate in their collaborative project. Its an honour, because they are making really amazing collages and a lot of elegant street art stuff.

here is a small preview of their works.

My result is a kind of attribute of Leo&Pipo, adding some pop art cliches and a lot of random patterns. These random patterns are mostly memory glitches from my own taste, but i have been keeping the option to compose the image deeply.

here is the result:

 

Failed memories- digital collages and glitches

mr and mrs sanday

beautiful sunday with the sanday family. They were a young and solid pair, but the geometry of their feelings are changed a lot during the years.

I have been starting to rethink my concept with glitch art, and how i would continue to develop my works. I have been starting to create  pseudo narratives, based on old photos (most of them are unknown family photos), adding my different digital glitch processes. The basic idea is how to recode (decode) the meaning of the memory and how it can work together with my generated failure and pseudo narrativity.

story of mr.wolf

one day mr wolf wrote down too much numbers. when his memory was decoded the same numbers somehow modified his fragments.

The question is how our memory works, when we see a picture (photo) we are able to remember to the details, but only for short period. In long term we  start to loose parts of the details and instead of these lost fragments we fill the gaps with our self generated memories, memory fragments. A bitsimilar how the video cards functioning (PBO, memory glitch).

Do All Dogs Go to Heaven? Will Our Pets Be With Us in Heaven?

This kind of digital images are not connected directly with the glitch art, or lets say the glitch (image error, artifact, failure) not on the focus. In this case i would consider this process as a “non orthodox” glitch process. Iam still using my own code and methods, but meantime i need to use an image editor to isolate the foregrounds and the backgrounds. If i see from this point i can get more options to play with the composition.

mrczettel

mr. czettel found his skin full with his own memory fragments. But his moustache is still clean. Thanks g.d.

But right now iam just improving my existing codes to be able to achieve more specific result with the compositions and iam searching for the optimal inputs (photos).

If you have any family photos which you would like to see as a failed memory of mine, please dont hesitate to send me here:
