2025: Sabotage

The focus this year is all-in on a new project emerging from an ongoing, overarching art-poetry-sound initiative called ART IS INTEL.

Last year, we found ourselves in a multimedia universe of AI HALLUCINATIONS, which included a month-long gallery showing and live performance + published, limited-edition chapbook + collaborative website in which the public could participate (add their own poetic ‘hallucinations’ to the Lina Language Model / poetry generator).

This year, the growing collective (Founders: Lina Ramona Vitkauskas and Ben Turner) will be exploring how to articulate SABOTAGE in our video poetry and music, and further, how SABOTAGE can become a unifier among the US & Canadian left so they may feel empowered with useful art-tactics / tangible disruptions in response to growing / rising fascism.

Some grabs from the HALLUCINATIONS site (below) before it goes dark. Thanks to all who participated. A total of 100 poems were human-made in defiance of AI.
