"We are constantly guided and controlled by algorithms. The attempt to undermine this determinism playfully or artistically can be found, among other things, in the approaches of the Situationists (e.g. Guy Debord's wandering around Paris with a street map of London) or in Fluxus (e.g. a negation/abolition of chance in Robert Fillious Work One. Un. One.) who have taken the game of chance to the extreme" Reverse Diffusion: Chance vs Prediction (Eryk Salvaggio, 2024) https://www.cyberneticforests.com/news/reverse-diffusion-chance-vs-prediction-2024

Key point for me that people wrapped up in the hype machine often overlook: "to make a computer do something, we have to know how to tell it what to do." Spent a few years rolling dice for colours on one some of years of the daily project, and in 2023 used DALL-E to generate images based on images from the previous year. The images are a magnificent failure. It's actually pretty easy to baffle these tools. Quite boring and time consuming to make something you can imagine. The rolling dice made me think of this thing that was gifted to me by @nathansonic when was using dice to determine prices of the daily works that were minted in 2022 and 2023. Ended up not using it because the prices were too high. Or were they?

Never held it in my hand, but always wondered how obvious it is which side is the top once rolled.
