“People, Grass Clippings, Even Manure” is an illustrated video transcript of a conversation between the artist and an early instance of GPT3 primed with ‘Into the Universe of Technical Images,’ an essay by the late media theorist Vilem Flusser. The conversation took place between September 11th and September 15th, 2020, and is presented unedited and unabridged. The audio narration was generated with a commercial text-to-speech engine, and the accompanying illustrations were designed by the artist using Art Breeder.
