reflection of a reflection of a reflection

a synthographic motion picture

Inspired by the 2013 blog post “I, We, Waluigi: a Post-Modern analysis of Waluigi” by Franck Ribery, the film reflects on what it means to exist only in reference to others. ⅄, just like generative machine learning models, bears no relation to reality whatsoever.

The film was created through a novel technique mixing Stable Diffusion, 3D animation and ethically sourced datasets. The fine-tuned models, original frames and all parameters + prompts have been open-sourced on its website.
