Glocca Morra (How Are Things In) is a multi-part video work based on a journal left behind by my father after his passing in 2017. Incorporating both family and historical photos, AI image creation, and collage, along with bringing my father’s voice to “life” using voice cloning software mixed with mysterious sound beds, this work evokes an interior psychological space where memories are faulty or even wholly invented. At the same time, I address current anxieties around AI's assault on factual information and truth itself, as well as on human endeavor, by exploring its weaknesses.
