Video Games That Don’t Exist

Video Games That Don’t Exist is an experimental video work by Kieran Nolan exploring the intersection of AI, authorship, and game aesthetics. Comprising several clips generated by OpenAI’s Sora, the work embraces the glitches and unpredictabilities of AI, where horses morph into canine-like creatures and bodies deform in chaotic ways. Nolan’s editorial process balances AI＇s chaotic output with deliberate selection, turning imperfections into creative assets rather than flaws. This piece, blending breakdancing, racing, and surreal YouTube culture, reflects on the evolving role of AI in creative practice, where control is shared between man and machine, and the boundaries of digital art are continuously redefined.
