I see both trends as interconnected. Within the linear computational processes of CGI technology, no human error, intentional or unintentional, will go unnoticed. By forcing processes into non-linear interpretations I interrupted, disturbed, in short manipulated linear, hierarchical and rational CGI processes. I interpret the abstract nature of my imagery as a result of the program having been forced into behavior contrary to its nature or purpose. Because of the introduction of accidents through computational failure, albeit artificial, my imagery simply makes no sense in the context of digital imagery, which strives for beauty achieved and measured by ever greater realism.
Abstraction serves as tool for resistance and subversion.
Overall my work is an exploration into the genderedness of technology. By inducing malfunction I seek to witness a triumph of the emotional over rationality, of multiplicity over singularity, of the circular over the linear, of nurture over domination and authority. CGI technology opaquely perpetuates its own codex by means of language. Yet, error may very well be CGI technology's salvation, because to err is neither male nor female, but human.
