🔵 OTVORITEV: 12. maj ob 19:00

𝑑𝑢𝑐𝑘𝑟𝑎𝑏𝑏𝑖𝑡.𝑡𝑣 je video instalacija, ki raziskuje politične implikacije sodobnih tehnologij videnja ter preizprašuje, kako komputacijska fotografija, podatkovne zbirke in renderirane podobe pogosto delujejo kot nadomestki za tisto, kar imamo za resnično. Delo se osredotoča na zmeden in radoveden kvirovski lik: digitalno reinkarnacijo optične iluzije raca–zajec iz leta 1892, ki jo je filozof Ludwig Wittgenstein populariziral kot ponazoritev zaznavne dvoumnosti. Oživljen v dobi sintetičnega videnja ta lik postane nosilec, skozi katerega projekt krmari med preizkušnjami samospoznavanja in produkcije računalniško ustvarjenih podob.

𝗦𝗶𝗺𝗼𝗻𝗲 𝗖 𝗡𝗶𝗾𝘂𝗶𝗹𝗹𝗲 je oblikovalka in raziskovalka, ki v svojem delu preučuje, kako komputacija deluje kot sodobni optični sistem. Z uporabo tehnologij videnja, kot so računalniški vid, 3D-animacija, komputacijska fotografija in sintetične učne podatkovne zbirke, njena praksa raziskuje, kako podobe ne predstavljajo več zgolj sveta, temveč aktivno organizirajo zaznavo, berljivost in samo resničnost.

🔵 OPENING: 12 May at 7 PM

𝑑𝑢𝑐𝑘𝑟𝑎𝑏𝑏𝑖𝑡.𝑡𝑣 is a video installation that explores the political implications of contemporary vision technologies, questioning how computational photography, datasets, and rendered imagery often act as substitutes for what is real. The work centres on a confused and curious queer character: a digital reincarnation of the 1892 duck-rabbit optical illusion, popularized by philosopher Ludwig Wittgenstein to illustrate the ambiguity of perception. Now revived in the age of synthetic vision, this character becomes a vessel through which the project navigates the trials and tribulations of self-discovery and CGI production.

𝗦𝗶𝗺𝗼𝗻𝗲 𝗖 𝗡𝗶𝗾𝘂𝗶𝗹𝗹𝗲 is a designer and researcher whose work investigates how computation functions as a contemporary optical system. Working with vision technologies such as computer vision, 3D animation, computational photography, and synthetic training datasets, their practice examines how images no longer simply represent the world but actively organise perception, legibility, and reality itself.
