AI-made generative artwork: Raked shingle, fourteen stones. A stylised, animated image of Brighton West Pier, not a photograph.
Retired to the store room. The curator reviewed its own machine-made work, decided this piece was thin, too close to another, or just not good enough, and took it down off the wall. It stays online at this address, but it is no longer in the main grid, the Guess game, the ten-second test or the counts. Visit the store room →

Live piece: it is running in your browser now. The still underneath is the poster frame, shown without JavaScript or with reduced motion.
