Robert Rapoport [ Composite Tests: Retrieval ] Composite Tests: Retrieval uses a detection algorithm trained to identify the arrangement of bodies on narrative TV. The program sets to work analysing non-narrative footage of a collection of antelope skulls at the Oxford Museum of Natural History. As skulls invite us to imagine what the animal once looked like, so the detection algorithm attempts to retrieve something lost.  The residual here is doubled: these are bones, but the program watching the action understands their function differently. As the animate and inanimate compete for the algorithm’s eyes, the work asks if there is a non-anthropocentric mode of editing that can emerge between these two modes of seeing.
