ALEXANDER KLUGE THE DRAGONFLYS EYE - ALEXANDER ...

In The Dragonfly's Eye  92-year-old author and filmmaker Alexander Kluge tests out the
cooperative capacities of the Stable Diffusion model  which uses AI to process images. As a
film-maker  he has many years of experience in dealing with the camera and its ways of seeing 
which are unlike how a person sees. As a result  he is particularly curious about the different
images that AI can generate. Kluge's essay in the book reflects on the idiosyncrasies of these
new types of images  in which chance factors and errors create subjunctive forms  resulting in
open images that are hard to place. Kluge establishes rules for using the "virtual camera" and
thus contributes to a debate on how AI should be handled. In a series of stories combining
images and text-ranging from cases of phantom pregnancy in East Germany via Philemon and Baucis
to the mercenary Yevgeny Prigozhin-he examines how the "virtual camera" opens up a space in
which stories can be told and imagined in a new way.  Alexander Kluge (b. 1932 in Halberstadt)
is a screenwriter  film and TV producer  writer  philosopher  and one of the most influential
exponents of New German Cinema.
