DIS/ordinary imperfectionist interested in the thorn sense of beauty of the human body and its representation. Going against the tide since I learnt to swim by myself. When you see a glitch think of me. http://www.dombarra.art/disverse

"The spectacle is not a set of images, but a social relationship between people, mediated by images" Guy Debord, The Society of the Spectacle. _ #popculture #society

Inspired by @irvinewelsh.bsky.social The Blade Artist, glitches became my blades to deconstruct famous portraits. Like Franco Begbie, I hold my sharp glitches to destroy IG influencer portraits until their pretty faces become unrecognisable. Unknowns. cifra.com/project/b712... _ #glitchart #art

Where do we end and the avatar begins? This video animation explores the fluid realm of digital identity/body, questioning the limitations of the physical self and the fractured forms of the apparent digital embodiment. Read more: www.tumblr.com/disordinaryb... _ #GlitchArt #DigitalArt

Who claim that AI is not art should be relieved that in #Cassandra there is a human artist working on her sculptures while the AI does her washing, cleaning, cooking...and screwing her family's life. There is also a part where the #AI tells the daughter "your artist mum makes no money, worthless".

AI art: #art or not? Christie's auction intensifies the debate. AI advocates repeat tired arguments. 3000 artists call it theft. In 2019, I "stole" my works, trained an #AI to make images until my style vanished. Art? I asked another AI to judge. Question; Will #AIart ever escape the human touch?

Am I late for Valentine's Day? The Atrocity Exhibition, JG Ballard. #Love and the #USA

AI: art or not? Christie's #AIart auction unfolds another redundant debate on the topic proving nothing new. The question should be why always feature the same artists? Every sale, NFT, generative art, digital art, always the same names. Very conservative choice. Why no real innovation? New voices.

"In the post-Warhol era a single gesture such as uncrossing one's legs will have more significance than all the pages in War and Peace. In twentieth-century terms the crucifixion, for example, would be re-enacted as a conceptual auto-disaster." The Atrocity Exhibition, JG Ballard. #Book

Before #AI, most of our idiotic impulses mercifully remained just that – impulses. Now, thanks to AI, we can unleash the full potential of our worst ideas upon the world. It's a glorious new era where the stupidest things we can imagine are suddenly, terrifyingly, possible.

On mainstream #socialmedia you either are a content creator, or you are the public.

In a world where everyone is pretending, #AI eventually will feel authentic.

The question of time is essential in the study of #art. Different materials degrade at different rates, and different ways. Some works went lost because their material was susceptible to time (wax masks, etc), and also depending on the culture, impermanence was an aesthetic quality in ancient Japan.

Some people do things with AI, others make AI do things.

Nothing makes sense anymore. Universal delirium. We'll die crazy without getting mad.

The next trend in #art is "nature". Artists, make sure you update your bio with "my art exists at the intersection of #AI and #Nature", etc.

Artifaecal Intelligence.

Almost there. I want to try something new for this mixed media #painting. It's just not there yet, but it's coming up. #FuckBeauty

The sacred and #AI.

Until it is finished, I will not know its face. Everyday I learn something new about it. Ps: I started to make mixed media paintings to bring my #art away from computers and slow my life down. While I still make videos and other digital works on/off, painting is my main interest at the moment.

AI is just a way. It's not the way. Don't let them fool you. It might work well with #AI, as much as it might not.

You don't need to use #AI, as much as you don't need to use #socialmedia. Feeding yourself is a need. Posting a photo of your meal is not a need. Posting an AI generated photo of a meal is not a need. You can but that doesn't mean you need to. Don't buy the bullshit you need AI at all costs.

I haven't tried #DeepSeek. The motivation is that I don't want to be enslaved by the #AI FOMO and cycles of updates, new releases, etc. I went through that with social media, NFT, Blockchain, not freaking worth it. I am dealing with a simple rule; I don't need AI, and when I do, it's on my terms.

If #AI becomes just too much to handle, AI can be switched off, like it or not. It's just a matter of choice.

The web and the Internet, screwed for greed. Social media, screwed for greed. NFT, crypto, blockchain, screwed for greed. AI, screwed for greed.

"Why must we await, and fear, a disaster in space in order to understand our own time?" The Atrocity Exhibition, JG Ballard. _ "This was no ordinary victory. This was a fork in the road of human civilization...It is thanks to you that the future of civilization is assured". Elon Musk

We should also consider that #ElonMusk is a bit of an attention seeker, vanity is devouring him, and vanity will devour his relationship with #Trump and other very ambitious people in Trump's family & Co. He stole the scene, and that fascist salute was done on purpose, he went for it with pride.

Considering that #ElonMusk is one of those guys who is into symbols, see the recurring use of X, and also the names he chooses for his kids, I doubt that that salute was just plain enthusiasm. There are many ways to address a crowd your love, how unfortunate he picked a Nazi Salute just randomly.

If #ElonMusk hadn't done that #NaziSalute (twice) in the context of a political agenda including minorities discrimination, people deportation, land occupation, ties and praise to far right parties and organizations, maybe his neurodivergent condition acted up. But that's not the case.

MIMΣƧIƧ: Imitative representation of the real world in art and literature. Aristotle would have appreciated photorealistic #AI images. Plato not.
