Chance Would Be A Fine Thing

https://metalabel-ktav.metalabel.com/chance-would-be-a-fine-thing-book?variantId=1

Created by Bangkok-based design-art collective COPODE. Each #book contains 100 designs and an essay about chance combinations in #graphic layout using custom-made auto-layout #software.

I’m currently working with COPODE on the design of a set of badges playfully responding to the ‘100% Human Made’ movement in #art. That movement promotes the belief that genuine art can only be created by individual #humans through sparks of inspiration born of lived personal experience and the long development of #craft and skills.

Our badges, by contrast, read:

100% Inhuman: Made With AI

The accompanying text will affirm that the work was not created through a spark of human genius – a claim to originality that, from a #feminist and #decolonial perspective, has been likened to a form of colonial violence – but emerges from an assemblage of #human and nonhuman forces: bodies, texts, political infrastructures and, yes, #ai.

"When we measure the world with a ruler made for humans, other species inevitably come up short"

Christine Webb on the myth of Human exceptionalism—the belief that humans are fundamentally separate from and superior to the rest of nature.
