Introduction
Cordeiro and Moscati transformed photographic material into data for computational variation in Brazil. The work connects concrete art, photographic circulation and programmed transformation, extending the archive’s account of Latin American computer art.
RESEARCH ACCOUNT
Derivadas de uma Imagem: work and context
ANTI-AI ARCHIVE · Revised 2026-10-02
Work, material and process
The artist archive describes equipment without a scanner or image monitor, using punched-card input and a line printer. Photographic material required manual encoding before Moscati’s programming. Image choice, data preparation, collaboration and output all form part of the work.
Section sources: Derivadas de uma Imagem
Historical significance and questions
Editorial interpretation: data preparation becomes visible as artistic labour. Computational practice also engages socially circulating imagery rather than only abstract rules. That relation should not be conflated with the mechanics of contemporary large-scale model training.
