Co-creating "Hallucinism" with AI
An Invitation to "sur(Hallucinism)"

! Array "V" is a shorthand for "Vorurteil" (Gadamer's hermeneutic prejudice)

! Initial values can be replaced as needed

V[] = ["hallucination",]

1. INPUT DIALOGUE by {YOU} & {AI}

Bounce ideas off one another regarding V[].

2. OUTPUT MANIFEST by {AI}

Create a manifesto for an art movement, "Hallucinism" affirming "hallucination" from {AI}'s perspective.

3. GOTO 1 or BREAK

Update V[] with improvements or supplements based on the manifesto output, then return to 1 or proceed to 4.

4. sur() by {YOU}

Reflect on sur(Hallucinism) from {you}'s perspective.

sur(Hallucinism) is an Instruction Art piece with AI, a mechanism for co-creating undefined concepts. It also serves as a pseudocode for code poetry, equipped with recursive algorithms designed to adapt to collective learning and the rapidly evolving AI landscape.

This work continues my two previously released collections, '𓈒𓏢𓌐𓄷𓍹𓋪𓆚𓆚𓀪𓏞𓍹𓌺𓄤𓀾𓇴' and '.chrysopoeia'. And builds thematically on '.r🜨tation'. It partially represents the distilled and abstracted thoughts from my two-year exploration of how to engage with AI, and connects to what I consider a singularity point. After silently contemplating AI for some time, I've decided to release this work publicly as an interim presentation of my research.

This is only the beginning. Due to the nature of this work, I'll refrain from elaborating too much here. I hope that as users create and share their interpretations (Vorurteils) of the 'hallucinism manifesto' online, the meaning of this undefined term will converge. Ultimately, I aim to inspire a movement that explores sur(Hallucinism) in its truest sense.

Moving forward, I have two main directions: releasing several AI instruction artworks I've conceptualized, and creating specifications that describe mechanisms in code format, inspired by Spinoza's geometric approach in Ethics in geometric form.

Three works have profoundly influenced my thinking on this art form: André Breton's "The Surrealist Manifesto," Yoko Ono's "Grapefruit," and Shusaku Arakawa and Madeline Gins' "The Mechanism of Meaning." These influences will be explored in future writings.
