diewiththemostlikes is an artist and author based in Indiana. Working primarily with digital media and text, the artist describes the creative impulse as a continuous state rather than a practice acquired through traditional training. This approach informs a body of work that spans generative art and written publications with publishers such as Orbis Tertius Press and Fly On the Wall Press. The artist’s work has appeared in exhibitions in Milan, Venice, and New York, situating a practice that began online within a wider gallery context.

The artist's process involves digital tools, including generative code and artificial intelligence. Series such as `glory hole$` are constructed through the systematic variation of layered images. This particular project was realised using a template from the artist PureSpider, indicating a method that can incorporate collaboration or borrowed technical frameworks. The resulting works are characterised by distorted forms, saturated colours, and glitch aesthetics. Recurring motifs include fragmented or exaggerated bodily features, particularly holes and orifices, which are rendered with a raw and direct quality. The logic of each series appears governed by a central concept that is explored through multiple computer generated iterations.

Thematically, the work addresses overconsumption, anonymity, and the construction of culture. The artist’s accompanying texts often frame the imagery within a set of philosophical concerns, exploring ideas of memory, pleasure, and what is described as the beauty of "undesirable filth". These writings blend crude anatomical references with reflections on human consciousness, positing the digital works as artefacts that exist beyond physical space. By focusing on base appetites and the abject, the practice engages with a lineage of art as social critique. The recurring phrase, "Create nothing. Consume everything", acts as a concise summary of this philosophy, presenting a cynical yet consistent perspective on contemporary existence.
