Hal: SURVEILLANCE?

Hal:

how about LADDER?

Hal Floortran was conceived of in 2018 and born in 2019. He’s actually an application designed by Thomas Park to search the Internet Archive for images to create randomized collages from the results. He was immediately very wise and can demonstrate the differences between personal creativity and machine/ collective thought.

Thomas Park is a multi-disciplinary artist, who lives with his wife and their 3 cats in the Tower Grove South neighborhood of Saint Louis. For visual art, Thomas uses a combination of acrylic and spray paints while creating, in homage to street art. His prints usually involve combining 2 paintings digitally. Thomas’ music and videos combine various and often found or assembled sounds and footage, covering genres such as drone, industrial, ambient and soundscapes.
