VIDEO POST proposes FLICK KAi by Daniel Heiss. The works shapes from the installation Flick Ka (2007) by Peter Weibel and Matthias Gommel where visitors have had their portraits taken over 50,000 times over the last ten years. Data on visitors’ profiles have been nurturing an algorithmic memory, now capable of producing photorealistic synthetic images.
