Morphogenesis: Cinema of Becoming (Or Not)
This collection—A Zizzlewick in the Drizzle, Anima, and Softly Digital—is less a showcase of generative cinema than a running gag about its ambitions. Morphogenesis here does not guarantee progress or revelation; it guarantees only more morphogenesis. Forms shift, dissolve, reassemble, collapse again—like a joke with no punchline told by a machine that never laughs. The films seduce with their atmospheres, then betray the viewer with their refusal to settle into coherence. In this way, the collection exposes the medium’s absurd core: cinema as gibberish generator, poetic precisely because it cannot mean.
