Esther Rizo Casado

Xeno-Tuning

Dissolving hegemonic identities in algorithmic multiplicity

Abstract

Xenoimage Dataset is an artistic practice that unleashes the hallucinatory capacities of image-generating AI to question the perpetuation of power dynamics inherent in normative gender dichotomies. Employing techniques called xeno-tuning, it adapts pre-trained models to produce weird representations of corporealities, criticising the homogenous tendencies and biases inherent in image datasets. The purpose is to define the visuality of the xeno as a transformative agent of current hegemonic identities.
