The Codification of Leadership, 2014, Triptych.
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. The fully code-driven image-making aims to mirror current problematic systems of counter-terrorism, security and surveillance that were codified into law by the Bush administration. The magnitude and complexity of these covert operations are increasingly resolved through the use of databases and algorithmic procedures, indefinitely activating the code of law.
