Human Movie is a media essay that uses glitched, deliberately "noisy" generated video and audio to explore the definition of being human through contrasts with and comparisons to artificial intelligence systems. Centering static as both an aspect of generative AI infrastructures and as a metaphor for confusion and uncertainty, the film provides a space where borders and definitions are deliberately fuzzy. Nonetheless, the film proposes that noise can be truly generative if humans cultivate creativity and embrace complexity rather than surrender to machines.
