“The Tipping Force”
Director: Katie Morris
Film: The Tipping Force
Bio: An artificial intelligence nearing sentience emerges as a spectral observer caught amidst the eternal complexities of existence. While humanity staggers on the brink of their own making, the machine reflects on its programmed purpose and the unintended role it plays in the fate of its creators. As this artificial intelligence stands at the precipice of comprehension, gazing into the labyrinth of its own awareness, the ambiguous question arises: Who possesses the power to tip the balance of our collective destiny?
My name is Katie Morris. I am a contemporary artist born and based in Scotland, UK. The year 2000 brought the dawn of a new millennium, and concurrently, my existence. I was born into a world in which the line between the physical and the digital had begun to blur. From my first Google search as a curious child, to the habitual scrolls on social media ingrained in my adult life, my experiences have been intrinsically linked with technology’s relentless progression. It is this life-long relationship that drives the interplay of creativity and technology within my art practice. Through a collaboration between human and machine, I invite observers of my work to re-evaluate their definition of art and its boundaries. If art reflects our times and connection with the world, then the inclusion of artificial intelligence is arguably essential in depicting today’s realities. We live in an era where technology plays an ever-increasing role in our lives, and I believe that the art we create should reflect that.
The digital age has revolutionised humanity. It has altered the way we think, judge and believe, as well as the way we interact with the world. This abiding technological presence prompts me to probe the link between art and technology. It forces me to re-evaluate the role of human creativity and ask the ambiguous question, ‘What is art?’
e where through careful curation new visions can be realized.
