Google Clips
Google Clips is a miniature camera developed by Google that automatically captures video clips at moments it’s machine learning algorithms determine to be interesting or relevant. I was hired by Google as a consultant to help "teach" the intelligence about photography/seeing.

Artists and Machine Intelligence (AMI)
AMI is a program at Google that brings together artists and engineers to realize collaborative projects that engage intelligent systems. Works are developed together alongside artists’ current practices and shown at galleries, biennials, festivals, or online. Here are some projects I've been a part of as an AMI team member.
~Yacht TV, What We Don’t See
Google hired Andy Rogers, a photojournalist; Christopher Woon-Chen, a filmmaker; and me, a fine art photographer to teach an intelligent camera about photography.
We were given a corner desk spot overlooking a canal. Watching boats float down the waterway outside our office window, each vessel took on singular interest for the brief span before, during, and after cruising through our view. Using a faux television screen, I started recording and publishing these passages on Instagram. With this, Yacht TV was born — a theatrical complement to the daily task of training an AI. We were devoted watchers, waiting for serendipitous boat blips to become unintentional characters, related to each other in a frame-bound story of perpetual forward motion…
~Word Car
I took a 4-day road trip to shoot a prose-writing car from NYC to NOLA last March as a part of the AMI program at Google along with Word Car creator, Ross Goodwin, AMI colleague Kenric McDowell, and a Vice video documentary crew.
