Here's a teaser of my upcoming immersive VR project with gamification elements. This teaser was made with production footage and does not represent the final level. Have a look and feel free to share your thoughts, as usual. See y'all at @gamescom 2024!! @vlaamsaudiovisueelfonds @cyborn.be @leenvandereyken @polarbear.tv #games #gaming #virtualreality #gamescom #gameplay #immersive #teaser

HEXfast at Tiffany’s treats trademarked colour as contested territory. The work weaponizes non-human agency against the “chromatic enclosure” of our screens.

When colour becomes property. HEXfast at Tiffany’s treats trademarked colour as contested territory. The piece asks what happens when autonomy, algorithmic agency, and corporate colour collide — and whether a machine can intervene in the politics of chromatic ownership.

What if your attention was a literal currency? Thrilled to share "Ledger of Attention"—> entry @arabbankch Digital Art Prize 2026!✨ Web based. 100% code. Live data-, market— and biometric consensus. When attention collapse, the system liquidates. There is no neutral position outside the system.

Happy to share this one --> Live on @superrare.co LOOKING FOR POLLOCK deploys forensic AI inside a generative, coded painting environment. The work asks what it means to “know” an artwork through measurement, annotation and classification. What emerges is a productive failure.

Looking for Pollock — Frederik De Wilde Looking for Pollock deploys machine vision and forensic AI as analytical instruments inside a generative, coded painting environment. The work presents a dense digital canvas of algorithmically generated drips, splatters and gestural traces that consciously reference the visual grammar of Jackson Pollock, while simultaneously subjecting these marks to continuous computational scrutiny. Machine-learning models scan the surface for clusters, chromatic anomalies, micro-gestures and compositional “events,” annotating the field with probabilistic readings that attempt to name, isolate and stabilize meaning. What emerges is a productive failure. The AI detects teal swirls, blue clusters, pink accents and fragmented gestures, yet these identifications never cohere into a definitive interpretation. Instead, they reveal the limits of forensic seeing: pattern recognition without understanding, description without intention. The canvas evolves as both image and dataset, exposing how algorithmic meaning-making depends on prior training, statistical bias and reductive taxonomies. Rather than reenacting Pollock as style, Looking for Pollock reframes action painting as an epistemological problem. The work interrogates the semiotics of AI itself, asking what it means to “know” an artwork through measurement, annotation and classification. In doing so, De Wilde positions AI not as an authority on meaning, but as a mirror that reflects the instability, projection and speculative nature of interpretation in the age of machine vision. #jacksonpollock #AI #artificialintelligence #digitalart

I love mixing abstract and figurative elements, code and sound. I gave this piece, made during my @serpentineuk @aliasbyalien residency, a little update. @googleartsculture

'Deep Flaw' by @studio_de.wilde Seven unique digital works with physical 3D sculpture available now on SuperRare 💎 // Deep Flaw (2016) is a pioneering milestone in AI-driven sculpture — the first sculptural 3D-printed readymade of the AI age, extending Duchamp’s lineage from Bicycle Wheel (1913) and Fountain (1917) into the algorithmic era. Where Duchamp redefined art through the simple act of selecting an ordinary object, Deep Flaw extends and relocates this gesture into computation: selection becomes distributed across evolutionary algorithms, datasets, and machine perception. Created by Frederik De Wilde in collaboration with researchers at the IT University of Copenhagen and the University of Wyoming, the project uses evolutionary computation and deep neural classifiers to generate three-dimensional forms from minimal, low-resolution photographic input. The resulting shapes are confidently labeled by machines as familiar categories, yet appear phallic, uncanny, or distorted to human viewers — revealing the hidden architectures through which machines “see.” Deep Flaw stands as a 21st-century readymade: a digital sculpture in which authorship is shared between artist and algorithm, and where machine-driven and artist-in-the-loop selection becomes a sculptural gesture on par with Duchamp’s revolutionary interventions.
