This Is a Turing Test is a speculative video-performance structured as a dialogue between a human speaker and an algorithmically reconstructed voice assembled from voicemails, search history, and digital residue. Set inside a remembered apartment rendered from memory, the work stages an intimate conversation between past self, synthetic double, and an absent other, blurring the boundaries between memory, simulation, and loss.

The visual field is composed in part of digitized 35mm slides from the artist’s great-grandfather, scanned without restoration, preserving dust, creases, and chemical wear as evidence rather than defect. Moving through themes of autofill, archival entropy, family media, petrochemical memory, and glitch ethics, the work treats memory as a material under pressure: plastic, combustible, and irreversibly changed.
