Every 16 June, Bloomsday is celebrated worldwide. This festival is dedicated to James Joyce and his masterpiece, Ulysses. In 2020, I used this experimental novel to train a language model, which created new versions and variants. I was impressed by their coherence and adherence to the spirit of Joyce. I then used these as the basis for a screenplay for this AI-based movie homage to Ulysses. This short movie was featured: 2023, UAI Talent Night, Familie Montez Gallery, Frankfurt am Main. 2022, Karajan Music Tech, Germany 2021, Waterkant Festival, Kiel, Germany Read more here: https://medium.com/merzazine/bloomsday-2020-f312be5caf94?sk=e8464988b2f604f5a116c55cb1f74eb7 Tools used for the movie: * GPT-2 trained on Ulysses - for Screenplay * ArtBreeder (GAN) - for visuals * JukeBox - for Music * Replica Studios - for character Voices * Premiere Pro - for cut and directing

2024 Merzmensch lebt, メルツ人は踊る, Im Chaosrausch, where sense is torn. 音の波が形を変える, ein Sturm aus schräger Zeit, Merzmensch ruft: "Ich bin der Schrei, and endless night." Durch Farben schwebend, 奇妙なリズム, Merzmensch is noise, und Stille zerrinnt. Kunst wird gebrochen, アートの中の混沌, Ein Schritt nach vorne, Dada flüstert: „Come on!“ メルツの声が空を切り裂く, die Welt vibriert, Merzmensch lacht, where logic disappears. Verrückt, seltsam, 予測不能, Merzmensch ist Dada, the heart of it all.
