Guiseppe Verdi’s monumental Requiem is an epic and deeply moving work written in honor of Italian writer Alessandro Manzoni. This choral masterpiece merges operatic intensity with sacred reverence, exploring the full range of human emotion—from fear and sorrow to hope and transcendence. It stands as one of Verdi’s most profound and stirring works, a requiem that feels both personal and universal.

We exist in a moment of over-stimulation and information saturation, a moment where a short descriptive paragraph can create a beautiful, sparkling image for us, but then be quickly forgotten and dissolved back into the ether of the internet. These bits of data are reassembled into images or video, which can be visually interesting, but a bit disconcerting at times. This work is a playful way to make commentary on the serious questions about AI art. Using very simple pre-programmed vacuuming/mopping robots with some minimal modifications I wrangle the robots to produce something visually interesting. The catch is, just like AI, these robots cannot do it on their own. They need input and a lot of help from a person to make the art.
