> Artist Sam Lavigne created ‘Slow LLM’ to make people question their dependence on tools like Claude and ChatGPT. Or at least, make them super annoying to use.

A 3D-printed bust titled “DELUSION,” featuring a distorted, monochromatic figure of Donald Trump. The figure has a white, heavily textured head with a melting or warped appearance, paired with a dark, ridged body in a suit. His hands are raised in a signature oratorical gesture, also printed in white. In the background, other colorful 3D-printed sculptures are visible, including a teal bust with red hair and purple glasses, and a stylized Statue of Liberty, all resting on a marble surface.
A 3D-printed art installation on a marble surface featuring two distinct sculptures. In the foreground, a piece titled LAW/LIBERTY shows a red, tactical-clad figure striking the Statue of Liberty, who is splattered with red. To the right, the bust titled DELUSION depicts Donald Trump, the current 47th US President, with a distorted, melting white face and hands held in a gesturing pose against a dark, textured suit. A glowing amber candle in a jar sits nearby, casting a warm light over the scene.
“I’m a dictator. Sometimes you need a dictator.”

A brightly lit indoor photograph featuring three 3D-printed sculptures by artist Elaine Muscari-Taddoni—titled SPECTRE, MELTDOWN, and LAW/LIBERTY—arranged on a marble tabletop. On the left, SPECTRE is a dark, charcoal-textured bust of a hooded figure with deep, rhythmic ridges. In the center, MELTDOWN is a teal portrait with vibrant red hair and lavender glasses. On the right, LAW/LIBERTY is a dynamic, kinetic figure in red and teal, frozen in a complex pose. These works represent a physical exploration of the latent space of Platonic aesthetics, where Muscari-Taddoni uses algebraic manipulation in embedded spaces to distill her own photography and family archives into novel forms. Much like a guitar pedal modulating sound, her algorithms modulate these "thought forms," filtering personal data and neural computation into tangible, 3D-printed essences. The scene is set against a white brick fireplace and various art tools, marking the transition of these computational ideals into the material world.
