A creative flurry for the end of 2025 and new momentum for The Masterpiece of #Tamagata! Thanks to @responsibleaiuk and the universities behind ART-I (ARTificial Intelligence) for commissioning me to deepen my research into positive adoption of AI in my practice.

I've been having a lot of fun chatting with movie stars of old. Fascinating tips on filmmaking from Alfred Hitchcock; bit of banter with Bette Davies about Joan Crawford; and inspirational words from Hattie McDaniel - try it yourself!

AI brings dreamlike visuals, unexpected juxtapositions, & illogical narratives to film, echoing core tenets of Surrealism. Timely then to reflect on Surrealism's origins & cinematic development in this short survey by @SothebysInst
