Evelyn Yard is pleased to present a solo show by Paul Kneale, ‘4 or 5 self portraits for free-form natural language descriptions of image regions’. This exhibition follows on from his October 2014 offsite project at Tank.tv, ‘SEO and Co.’ where the artist re-appropriated YouTube’s algorithmically generated text of a talk he participated in to form the basis for a screenplay that was filmed in his South London Studio.

 

For ‘4 or 5 self portraits for free-form natural language descriptions of image regions’, Kneale has arranged an informal research partnership with Google in relation to in-development technology which can create automated text descriptions from image files that render as of yet impossible nuances of action and time.
