Generative Territory Speculative Algorithms

Generative Territory Speculative Algorithms reverse-engineers AI image analysis systems through source material from Gaza’s Great March of Return and Al-Aqsa Mosque. The work interrogates biometric surveillance and datafication protocols designed to process native populations, tracing how Palestinians reconfigure their existence to evade computational capture. Images melt through algorithmic distortion while the sound composition draws on a Palestinian resistance song once used to transmit encoded messages to prisoners during British colonial rule.
