“Fractura” picks up on the modes of representation that image transformation enables. Just as Pop Art took over and somehow shifted the world of visual advertising, Gamma slightly dislocates technological images so that they reveal something other than what they are meant to. And similar to the way Pop artists were enthusiastic about the trivial world of signs, Gamma is taken with the unintentional beauty of machine art. Featuring a rotating cyborghian, genderless head, “Fractura” displays the classic elements of Gamma’s GIFs: line drawings, flat 3D objects, rotating models, body parts, an indexed color palette, all of which generate characters that somewhere on the internet have been defined “transsexual Bellmeresque zombiedroids.”
