An artificial intelligence dreams that it is an animal: As a cougar, it wanders through digital landscapes, lost in thought. Finally, in the guise of the big cat, it hides at the bottom of the sea to sleep until the world changes.
"My paws are soft, my bones are heavy" is a poetry film written by an artificial intelligence, narrated by a text to speech converter and shot within a modded video game. Together, these technical systems dream themselves into a tired animal.
