  1. I.M.PROMPT.U

    These “12 meditations on propaganda art and Russian communism” make amazingly compressed commentaries on the works it has chosen, particularly in the context of its production constraint of 17 minutes per piece. As an impromptu response from an artist and poet using Flash as a tool, this piece highlights the temporality and visual agility of the dancing signifier. The letters, words, and symbols superposed on the propaganda art feel spontaneous and full of life, questioning, mocking, obscuring, admiring, and engaging the material it dances before. These traces are lenses through which we experience Communist propaganda art, gesturing towards Thuan’s own ideology. At the same time, the contrast between the artistic media and expressive strategies enhances the experience of both, resulting in a work that is more than the sum of its parts.

  3. The (auto)biography of 김정은

    The (auto)biography of 김정은 is a conceptual 'found' artwork in seven parts. It combines found code with found text. Multiple 'found' computational pieces have been modified with vocabulary drawn from multiple speeches delivered by the current North Korean Leader, Kim Jong-un/김정은. In addition, vocabulary and phrases from journalism critical of the North Korean regime are also incorporated into these generative works.

    This work represents a ‘dystopic platform’. On the one hand, this work is an experiment in propaganda delivery: it emulates the relentlessness of the North Korean indoctrination machine and shows how born-digital writing can be stolen and misused; in so doing, it reveals digital literature's power. As part of this process, a Kim Jong-un 'poetic robot' has been created to demonstrate how such propaganda might be delivered/forced upon a populace. This work also seeks to capture the perspective of a curious, intelligent yet powerless North Korean citizen and demonstrate how they might (struggle to) engage with local culture.
