The work in I, Algorithm represents my most direct engagement with AI to date, and it takes place through an act of recursion. Rather than build an algorithm using an external data set, I had the idea to make a body of work based on what AI thinks my work is. I hired a data scientist to write an AI machine learning program using my work as the data set. That program then generated a set of instructions that would allow me to make “a Channing Hansen artwork”—or, at least, whatever the AI thinks that is.
