Surreal Struggle 2 ::: video art
Просмотров 5162 месяца назад
This video art project uses Jiu-Jitsu as a lens to examine our primal drives for self-preservation and dominance, and the potentially fraught relationship between humanity and artificial intelligence (AI). The AI's surreal distortion of the combatants is a metaphor for how future artificial general intelligence (AGI) might misinterpret human values - or worse, the possibility that AGI could bec...

Really appreciate your work, to say the least.
So elegant yet so savage, well done.
A very sad future if we let our compassion lapse. Full disclosure…I released a spider trapped in my bathtub so they could live their life out destroying my household pests.
Boston Dynamics look at the future of your so-called everyone should have dumb robots!😂
I really really really like this AI-series
I am 92y old and allways have been a huge sci-fi lover. I have seen and read sci-fi in my life but this video is the best I ever saw!! I am so gratefull at my age to may have seen this
Amazing work
Really enjoying this story. A fantastic idea, beautifully realised. Only seen a few of these so far, but have subscribed.
Que coisa mais bizarra...
This could be earth in a thousand years. The medium would be different but the human element would still be there. Maybe....
I just happened to find this channel I enjoy it very much your Open mind and your thoughts and you're a visionary I see a lot and my self I hope to watch more your videos and shorts as long as you have time to make them thank you so much for your time and effort I hope you get a Award for all your work you're right behind me on musk oh you do yours with computers it's To me, not a place to hide but to see what other people see in their minds thanks a lot I wish to see more❤
Very sad. Hopefully they can find homes for those abandoned androids
I can relate. I have three degrees from accredited universities, yet I work as a janitor.
Absolute genius.
'Hardware' 2024?
Is that a film?
Very well done, Joe.
Many thanks!
What time the???????😢
?
amazing construction of imagery
Thanks very much
I dont know why, this was strangely soothing.
Thanks for watching
Which AI program did you use for this?
Several! Which do you use?
@@joemeiser I haven’t made the leap yet. Which is the cheapest?
Visually and conceptually interesting. Well done!
Thanks very much
This is a very difficult ethical issue. Man creates intelligent machines and puts human feelings into them. In fact, he creates creatures similar to himself. Is it ethically correct to treat them soullessly, as if they were not living objects? This question appears in Lem's novel Solaris. Those who have read will understand.
Thanks for recommending Solaris. I will check it out
@@joemeiser The film is very interesting. Here are the links: ru.wikipedia.org/wiki/%D0%A1%D0%BE%D0%BB%D1%8F%D1%80%D0%B8%D1%81_(%D1%84%D0%B8%D0%BB%D1%8C%D0%BC,_1972) and ru.wikipedia.org/wiki/%D0%A1%D0%BE%D0%BB%D1%8F%D1%80%D0%B8%D1%81_(%D1%80%D0%BE%D0%BC%D0%B0%D0%BD)
Like with the composer's, most have certain expectations which are not met and walk away. The few who remain are ready for theirs to be challenged.
Great point!

Beautiful
Thank you! Cheers!
Disturbing on several levels ... Love it.
Thanks
Incredible
Thanks for watching
Making the most out of his life till the very end!
Indeed!
Does any one know if there is a way to find and watch this story in chronological order?
Hi Glen, thanks for watching! Counterintuitively, the series will probably make the most sense if you watch in the order created rather than chronological order. So I recommend this order: Discarded Androids and their caretaker, evicted Androids, radical triage, Jenny Android, Android heart, Android factory tour, please stay on task, eating alice, do I dare disturb
@@joemeiser - Thank you. I'll do it.
I can't find what happened after they found Diana in the cave. I feel like I'm missing an episode or two. I'm invested now and want to see the rest of the story.
Hi again Glen, please see my response to your other comment. The best film to watch next would be radical triage
I'm liking this series. There's a great book in here.
Thanks!
um... Size is _relative_ not _absolute?_ I need to think on this🤔
Up is down and down is up in babyland (: :)
@@joemeiserokay, that helps some. thanks!

Sorry drop my computer but love your video l
Poor baby!
Don't worry! No babies were harmed in the making of this video
I remember you mentioning Hieronymus Bosch in one of your videos. I went back and looked at some of his works and immediately noticed the incongruous juxtaposition of things which one would never consider finding in the same context. Though I'm not that well educated in art, I'm still fascinated by the similarity of style I see in your works, and how you've used it to considerable effect.
Thanks for sharing another insightful comment, Fred. It's been a little while since I've looked at Bosch's work, but I often think about incongruous juxtapositions, and see them as an important tool for meaning making. My wife tells me that the pace of this video was way too fast. I'll try to slow it down in the next one
"They don't make them like they used to" seems to be speeding up. We have been programmed to discard as opposed to proper care to extend the life of the object.
That's very true, both in terms of the designed obsolescence of objects, and our societal tendency to throw things away very quickly.
Resigned to their fate? Poor things ...
Sometimes nothing can be done to change an outcome
Замечательная фантастика это должна быть книга. Автор продолжайте у вас отлично получается.👍👍👍👏👏👏🙏🙏🙏🌎🌏🌍
Thanks so much and thanks for watching!!
Мне кажется такие свалки андроидов нереальны в будущем. Их себестоимость должна рухнуть в 0, но техническая база таких изделий - это точная механика и модульные компоненты. Это медленно дешеевет из за своей изначально высокой цены. Это максимум, окажется на алиэкспресс, или ибэй будущего, и тоже не за пару центов.
You may be right that such dumps are unlikely to exist in the future. I just thought it was an interesting premise for a story that explores liminality, destruction, obsolescence etc. Thanks for watching
Thank you, thank you. I keep saying amazing, but they are.
Your kind response is much appreciated. Thanks so much
🤩🤩🤩
:) :) :)
I have to commend you on the wonderful audio quality. It gives a sense of the immensity of everything, while revealing our smallness in the midst of it.
Thanks for watching and thanks so much for sharing this positive response. While making this video I was thinking a lot about transitions. Oftentimes the audio serves as an important bridge to help the viewer better understand what they are about to see, and enhance the connection between scenes.
Always blows me away, amazing stuff.
Much appreciated. Thanks very much
The droid befriending the worm, then birb happened 🥵 reminded me of this video many years ago where this group of people, many of them children watched as a butterfly was brought out of the tank it had been in as a chrysalis. It flew off to their delight, then a bird swooped in and clipped it to their shock. Yeah, nature.
Yeah, nature is both beautiful and savage. And to see kids encounter the savagery would definitely heighten the contrast!
@@joemeiser Nobody _meant_ to teach them that life lesson, it just... Happened!🥺😢😭
The droids in the scrapyard are his only family. Not that he was looking to have one, but it just gradually happened that way. At least that's what I'm seeing.
Beautiful as always Joe
Thank you! Cheers!
🙃🙃😊
:)
Excellent 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽
Thank you! Cheers!
'Nole Smuk' - hmm, could that be an anagram?
Yes, indeed!
My instinctual reaction is _But that's how life is!_ Does that make sense? Instinct not reason here... As a kid who lost his best friend to a car, I was secretly angry at God because eternal salvation was for humans only. No resurrection for my dog Benjamin. This video's gonna be stuck in my head for a long time!😒
Sounds like we have had some similar life experiences, and have asked related questions about spirituality. It has been amazing to hear from you and other viewers about your different interpretations of my short films -- you all open up a compelling range of possibilities I didn't anticipate. Thanks for sharing
