Daste, Bergamo, 2021 Sept.
I remember very well how I felt when after a
year of research, tutorials and snacks I
managed to complete my first training from
a customised dataset. The result when I look
at it now is awful: visible pixels, low resolution
and a taste for the horrid. This ugliness now,
however, tells me about the way my relationship
with codes began, the awareness of the
material conditions (computational costs) that
support high resolution outcomes and the
importance of copyleft and free access to
knowledge.
