He also addresses ethical concerns: machines lack inherent ethics or understanding of subject matter – e.g., an AI will “merge a girl and a field…with no hesitation,” which “shows how those machines can definitely create stuff” yet raises worries about control and responsibility seditionart.comseditionart.com.

Dec 7, 2023 – BISFF “Correspondence” Interview (Beijing Intl. Short Film Fest): The Beijing ISFF published an email Q&A with Guli Silberstein as part of their “BISFF Correspondence (通信计划)” series (Vol. 14) bisff.cobisff.co. Format: Written interview (bilingual English/Chinese) posted online. Host: Beijing International Short Film Festival 2023. Context: Silberstein’s short Cycles of Creation: Variation 2 (2023) was featured in BISFF’s Cycles of Creation program.. Instead of live post-screening Q&As (difficult due to international participation), the festival emailed questions to filmmakers. Content: The Q&A (interviewer: Qiao Yu乔屿) delves into Silberstein’s creative process, especially the interplay of music and visuals in Cycles of Creationbisff.co. He explains that he first crafted the visuals “by my internal time perception,” then later found a piece of music (“Meditation”) which “magically fitted the visuals’ pacing” bisff.co. He notes the lack of direct collaboration with the composer but describes a “dialogue through the music” in how sound shapes the hypnotic, immersive feeling of the piecebisff.co. Other questions address the immersive experience of the film – one viewer felt as if they became “one of the particles” moving through nine life cycles – to which Silberstein agrees the goal was identification as “pure living consciousness” while watchingbisff.co. The final question compares the film’s voice-over to Donna Haraway’s Cyborg Manifesto, asking about the identity of the speaker (revealed as an AI). Silberstein’s answers shed light on his intentions to blur human and machine voices in service of “a better future for all,” tying into his theme of cybernetic perspectives on humanity. Platform: BISFF website (article format). Link: Official BISFF post (Chinese & English text) bisff.cobisff.co.
Oct 20, 2024 – Message To Man Festival Talk (St. Petersburg, via Zoom): Silberstein was invited as a guest speaker at the Message to Man International Film Festival 2024 (St. Petersburg, Russia). He gave an online talk via Zoom on Sunday, Oct 20, 2024 (during the festival dates). Format: Virtual lecture/presentation followed by discussion. Host: Mikhail Zheleznikov (festival programmer) and Message to Man IFF. Topic: “AI Art as a Disruptive Force”. Silberstein spoke about the emergence of AI in video art and how it connects to his two decades of work. He traced a line from his early experiments (circa 2001) to his contemporary AI-driven videos, arguing that AI represents a new “disruptive” phase in art comparable to earlier digital glitches. He posits that AI art can subvert traditional visuals and “refigure the contemporary context” of imagery (for instance, warping reality in novel ways, as seen in his 2023 works). Key points: Silberstein emphasized continuity in his practice – from manually “breaking apart” video signals in the 2000s to now coaxing neural networks to generate unforeseen images – all aimed at challenging viewers’ perception of reality. He likely referenced works like Overcome (2023), which use AI to animate static images into “creepy, lyrical, hallucinatory scenes.
