Abstract

Image Against Oppression is an online audiovisual project performed with TouchDesigner and a MIDI controller. Using a locally stored corpus of internet-circulated sensitive imagery, the work performs adversarial degradation as a VJ interface through blur, thresholding, temporal stutter, displacement, and rhythmic blackouts. The paper frames this method as interface consciousness: a critical awareness of how seeing is conditioned by warnings, loops, and thresholds.
