In(h)ertz

“In(h)ertz” establishes a simile between the disappearance of the cell by apoptosis and visual self-immo­lation in the context of human recognition methods in Artificial Intelligence. By integrating Biocouture, Machine Learning and AI, these designs act as hybrid camouflages and evasion patterns to confuse the ide­n­tification algorithms in security and surveillance cameras. Biotextile and recycled materials embodies here the poetics that transits in the cycles-hertz- that vibrates between programmed destruction and rebirth for a more sustainable common good, appealing to a HOPE for a better future.
