Me vs. You

Cine Insomnia

Me vs You explores queer intimacy in a world monitored by AI technologies. In this video installation, footage from a wrestling match is fed through a generative AI pipeline to highlight the system's inability to interpret human interactions. The work contrasts the cold precision of AI networks with the blurred boundaries of human conflict and connection. By embracing the system’s inaccuracies, the artists poetically express the tension and tenderness at the heart of our relationships.

His work explores human connection and alienation in the era of digital disconnect, often drawing inspiration from his background in philosophy, photography, and movement.

Adam Cole deals with the complexities of intimacy and identity in the age of AI, crafting immersive works that explore desire in the shadow of artificial representation. He integrates advanced AI-technologies, film, and installation to challenge the normative fantasies embedded in AI networks, seeking more diverse, poetic, and sensual alternatives. He is currently based at the Creative Computing Institute, University of the Arts London, as a lecturer and doctoral candidate. Drawing on the history of images, he extends a rich queer tradition of subverting popular media conventions to reveal unspoken double meanings and hidden desires.
