Mithridate (Infinite Recipes for a Better Life) (2023)
Video using OpenAI API
16” x 17.5” x 21.5”
Mithridate is a video work that uses OpenAI’s DALL-E Api to infinitely produce images of Mithridate recipes. Mithridate is a two-thousand-year-old, ever changing all-purpose remedy. In its first form, it is said to have inoculated King Mithridates IV against all poisons. This mythic status has remained though its recipe and name frequently change.
API integration done with the help of Greg Cerveny. His work can be found here.
