I invited you to produce a new work that would somehow deal with these issues, and you chose to work on the infamous \u201cTrump Gaza\u201d video (also known as \u201cGaza Riviera\u201d). Can you explain to us the reasons for this choice, and the way you have approached it? <\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n\n<div  class='col col-md-5 col-md-offset-7 col-xs-11 col-xs-offset-1'>\n\n<div  class='ho-tag is-primary is-small margin-bottom-3'>\t<p class='ho-tag-label'>Occitane Lacurie AND Barnab\u00e9 Sauvage<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\t<p class='ho-sd-body'>In many ways, the \u201cTrump Gaza\u201d video struck us as one of the opening salvos of a new era of AI-enabled political communication. Coinciding with the resurgence of imperialist aggressions in Palestine and Iran, this era of slopaganda is characterized by the proliferation of memes, frenetically edited videos and deepfakes constantly posted and reposted by fake accounts on social media. <br>At the same time , this video is exceptional because it is not merely part of the constant noise on these platforms: from the moment the US President reposted it on his Truth Social network in February 2025, it came to define the style of propaganda that would henceforth be associated with him. Beyond the images themselves, it acquired the status of both a war aim and a genuine political project.<br>This imagined projection of the future particularly interests us, as it seems to engage with the long history of relations between the West and the Middle East, from the Crusades for the Holy Land to the British Mandate in Palestine in the 20th century and until the present days. We therefore sought to reconnect this project to an older history by undertaking a cultural archaeology of media representations of the Gaza Strip, which the American historian Annabel Wharton has termed \u201csimulations of the Holy Land\u201d intended to \u201cmake it accessible to the West\u201d, in her book Selling Jerusalem: Relics, Replicas, Theme Parks (2006).<br><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n\n<section class='wp-block-ho-pattern toggle-optional-headline' data-pattern='ho\/medien-video-links-option-headline'>\n\n<div  class='container-fluid margin-bottom-7'>\n\n<div  class='row'>\n\n<div  class='col col-xs-12 ho-pattern-optional-headline'>\n\n<div  class='padding-bottom-4 '>\n<h2 class='ho-sd-h3' style=\"white-space: normal;\">Lorem Ipsum<\/h2>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n\n<div  class='col col-xs-11 col-xs-offset-1 col-md-7 col-md-offset-0'>\n\n<div  class='lazy-media-play-content-wrapper margin-bottom-7'><figure itemscope itemtype=\"http:\/\/schema.org\/ImageObject\" class=\"lazy-media-inline \" role=\"group\" aria-describedby=\"media_rl9N7W\">\n<script type=\"application\/json\">{\n\"id\" : 6,\n\"sizes\" : {\"medium\":{\"file\":\"azaleas_16-9-300x169.jpg\",\"width\":300,\"height\":169,\"mime-type\":\"image\\\/jpeg\",\"filesize\":9417},\"large\":{\"file\":\"azaleas_16-9-1024x575.jpg\",\"width\":1024,\"height\":575,\"mime-type\":\"image\\\/jpeg\",\"filesize\":71506},\"medium_large\":{\"file\":\"azaleas_16-9-768x432.jpg\",\"width\":768,\"height\":432,\"mime-type\":\"image\\\/jpeg\",\"filesize\":42296},\"1536x1536\":{\"file\":\"azaleas_16-9-1536x863.jpg\",\"width\":1536,\"height\":863,\"mime-type\":\"image\\\/jpeg\",\"filesize\":151874},\"small\":{\"file\":\"azaleas_16-9-440x247.jpg\",\"width\":440,\"height\":247,\"mime-type\":\"image\\\/jpeg\",\"filesize\":16794},\"semi\":{\"file\":\"azaleas_16-9-580x326.jpg\",\"width\":580,\"height\":326,\"mime-type\":\"image\\\/jpeg\",\"filesize\":26418},\"mobile\":{\"file\":\"azaleas_16-9-720x405.jpg\",\"width\":720,\"height\":405,\"mime-type\":\"image\\\/jpeg\",\"filesize\":38070},\"hd\":{\"file\":\"azaleas_16-9-1280x719.jpg\",\"width\":1280,\"height\":719,\"mime-type\":\"image\\\/jpeg\",\"filesize\":108342},\"full\":{\"file\":\"azaleas_16-9-1920x1079.jpg\",\"width\":1920,\"height\":1079,\"mime-type\":\"image\\\/jpeg\",\"filesize\":224749},\"original\":{\"file\":\"azaleas_16-9.jpg\",\"width\":2002,\"height\":1125}},\n\"alt\" : \"\",\n\"path\" : \"https:\\\/\\\/schirn.b-cdn.net\\\/wp-content\\\/uploads\\\/2023\\\/11\\\/\",\n\"video\" : null,\n\"autoplay\" : \"https:\\\/\\\/www.schirn.de\\\/wp-content\\\/uploads\\\/2026\\\/06\\\/Holy-Slop_Occitane-Lacurie_Barnabe-Sauvage_Ausschnitt_1.mp4\",\n\"youtube\" : null,\n\"youtubelabel\" : \"play\",\n\"brightness\" : 75,\n\"crop\" : {\"x\":0.5,\"y\":0.5},\n\"background\" : true,\n\"scale\" : 1,\n\"zoom\" : false,\n\"annotations\" : null}<\/script>\n<div class=\"height-container \" style=\"padding-bottom:56.25%;

The layout we chose, which formally echoes the plates of the Bilderatlas Mnemosyne compiled by the German art historian Aby Warburg in the 1920s, thus enabled us to reverse-engineer these images using the tools of iconology: what symptoms of our era do they reveal?<br><br>The images projected onto the second screen are more abstract, but no less evocative. They represent a formal exploration of the latent space of the Grok model, conducted in collaboration with computer scientist Paul Kronlund-Drouault. Despite their apparent formal differences, all these projections are based on the same topological representation of the model\u2019s ideological encoding.<br>In each of the four sections of this projection, this landscape \u2013 composed of \u201cmountains,\u201d \u201cvalleys,\u201d and \u201crivers\u201d \u2013 uses \u201c force fields\u201d to guide the generation of an image according to the parameters entered: these figures reveal the changes the image undergoes during the generation process. For example, the first section allows you to observe the variation of an image generated in response to the prompt \u2018child playing in the street\u2019 according to different values of the \u201cPalestinian\u201d parameter relative to the \u201cNeutral\u201d parameter.<br>In addition, the two projections \u2013 as well as the voice-over narration, performed by the Franco-Austrian media theorist Christa Bl\u00fcmlinger \u2013 offer an iconographic, technical, and historical interpretation of the cultural context underlying the so-called automatic generation of images. At the end of each of the three parts of our installation, the array of clues we have gathered enables viewers to see the \u201cTrump Gaza\u201d video in a new light and to provides tools for its political interpretation.<br><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n\n<section class='wp-block-ho-pattern toggle-optional-headline' data-pattern='ho\/medien-video-links-option-headline'>\n\n<div  class='container-fluid margin-bottom-7'>\n\n<div  class='row'>\n\n<div  class='col col-xs-12 ho-pattern-optional-headline'>\n\n<div  class='padding-bottom-4 '>\n<h2 class='ho-sd-h3' style=\"white-space: normal;\">Lorem Ipsum<\/h2>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n\n<div  class='col col-xs-11 col-xs-offset-1 col-md-7 col-md-offset-0'>\n\n<div  class='lazy-media-play-content-wrapper margin-bottom-7'><figure itemscope itemtype=\"http:\/\/schema.org\/ImageObject\" class=\"lazy-media-inline \" role=\"group\" aria-describedby=\"media_rl9N7W\">\n<script type=\"application\/json\">{\n\"id\" : 6,\n\"sizes\" : {\"medium\":{\"file\":\"azaleas_16-9-300x169.jpg\",\"width\":300,\"height\":169,\"mime-type\":\"image\\\/jpeg\",\"filesize\":9417},\"large\":{\"file\":\"azaleas_16-9-1024x575.jpg\",\"width\":1024,\"height\":575,\"mime-type\":\"image\\\/jpeg\",\"filesize\":71506},\"medium_large\":{\"file\":\"azaleas_16-9-768x432.jpg\",\"width\":768,\"height\":432,\"mime-type\":\"image\\\/jpeg\",\"filesize\":42296},\"1536x1536\":{\"file\":\"azaleas_16-9-1536x863.jpg\",\"width\":1536,\"height\":863,\"mime-type\":\"image\\\/jpeg\",\"filesize\":151874},\"small\":{\"file\":\"azaleas_16-9-440x247.jpg\",\"width\":440,\"height\":247,\"mime-type\":\"image\\\/jpeg\",\"filesize\":16794},\"semi\":{\"file\":\"azaleas_16-9-580x326.jpg\",\"width\":580,\"height\":326,\"mime-type\":\"image\\\/jpeg\",\"filesize\":26418},\"mobile\":{\"file\":\"azaleas_16-9-720x405.jpg\",\"width\":720,\"height\":405,\"mime-type\":\"image\\\/jpeg\",\"filesize\":38070},\"hd\":{\"file\":\"azaleas_16-9-1280x719.jpg\",\"width\":1280,\"height\":719,\"mime-type\":\"image\\\/jpeg\",\"filesize\":108342},\"full\":{\"file\":\"azaleas_16-9-1920x1079.jpg\",\"width\":1920,\"height\":1079,\"mime-type\":\"image\\\/jpeg\",\"filesize\":224749},\"original\":{\"file\":\"azaleas_16-9.jpg\",\"width\":2002,\"height\":1125}},\n\"alt\" : \"\",\n\"path\" : \"https:\\\/\\\/schirn.b-cdn.net\\\/wp-content\\\/uploads\\\/2023\\\/11\\\/\",\n\"video\" : null,\n\"autoplay\" : \"https:\\\/\\\/www.schirn.de\\\/wp-content\\\/uploads\\\/2026\\\/06\\\/Holy-Slop_Occitane-Lacurie_Barnabe-Sauvage_Ausschnitt_2.mp4\",\n\"youtube\" : null,\n\"youtubelabel\" : \"play\",\n\"brightness\" : 75,\n\"crop\" : {\"x\":0.5,\"y\":0.5},\n\"background\" : true,\n\"scale\" : 1,\n\"zoom\" : false,\n\"annotations\" : null}<\/script>\n<div class=\"height-container \" style=\"padding-bottom:56.25%;

The most striking example is undoubtedly a generated video posted by Republican MP Andy Ogles, depicting Pete Hegseth, the Secretary of Defense (now renamed \u201csecretary of war\u201d) and author of the book American Crusade, as a soldier of the Knights Templar.<br>This temporal collision is, however, merely an apparent paradox: as with the American Colony, the use of an audiovisual medium emblematic of technological modernity (yesterday photography or cinema, today AI) sits comfortably alongside the invocation of a mythologized past, going hand in hand with a \u201cbiblified\u201d representation of contemporary geopolitical issues.<br>More generally, it seems to us that the far-right\u2019s use of AI thrives on the very logic of platform capitalism, with its commodification of images and recommendation algorithms. Far-right slop materializes a nationalist fantasy stripped of any historical context, finding refuge in a sloppy folklore that serves both supremacism and imperialism. <br>As a similar logic was already evident in religious theme parks such as \u201cThe Holy Land Experience\u201d (which was in Orlando, Florida until its demolition in 2023), we used it as an emblem revealing the negative relationship with history and geography that is prevalent in modern fascist thought. It seems to us that AI is now an even more explicit political project than the propaganda of yesteryear.<br><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n\n<section class='wp-block-ho-pattern toggle-optional-headline toggle-optional-copy' data-pattern='ho\/teaser-angebot-lane-3er-option-headline-text'>\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-ho-div\">\n\n<div  class='container-fluid'>\n\n<div  class='row'>\n\n<div  class='col col-xs-12 col-md-6'>\n\n<div  class='ho-pattern-optional-headline'>\n\n<div  class='margin-bottom-4'>\n<h3 class='ho-sd-h3' style=\"white-space: normal;\">Lorem ipsum dolor sit<\/h3>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n\n<div  class='col col-xs-12 col-md-6'>\n\n<div  class='ho-pattern-optional-text'>\n\n<div  class='margin-bottom-4'>\t<p class='ho-sd-body'>Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consetetur sadipscing elitr, sed diam nonumy eirmod tempor invidunt ut labore et dolore magna aliquyam erat, sed diam voluptua.
