Hysteresis

Germany / 2021 / Abstract / 05:05 min

HYSTERESIS is a mesmerizing exploration that intertwines the abstract drawings of Robert Seidels and the dynamic choreography of queer performer Tsuki. Employing machine learning as a tool, the film creates a captivating interplay between lagged re-presentations, deliberately subverting the AI's strategies. The result is a frenetic, delicate, and flamboyant visual language that reveals the essence of hysteria and hysteresis in our current historical moment. Prepare to be immersed in a unique sensory experience that pushes the boundaries of art and technology.
