Uccello, The Battle of San Romano, 1438-40.
The Battle of San Romano by Uccello is a little off the project specification, but it informs my own imaginary of technologies, visual culture and influence, in fact these images will be published in a zine called ‘Under the Influence’ by the First Line Collective in 2026.

A swirl of unstable figures, flows through me in all directions, such as rats and fleas self-replicating and voracious attacks of my brain, only animals was not, it was language."
