Full video “PALINGENESIS” (IG square version)

“There’s no way AI could ever be Art”

“AI is the best thing ever, EVERYTHING is all going to get replaced now”

these are the two extreme opinions I would often come across online. I agree and disagree with both, however I wanted to approach the medium/method from more of a curiosity perspective. What if we could actually combine and create something that was close to impossible before?

Let’s continue exploring 😌

“As above, so below, as within, so without”

Another one for the books with @hok x @erica_klein 👏 Couldn’t be happier to work with @imagecauldron @experiencewet @doyleimage to expand a vision that started off just as an imagination. After the experiment we created last year, I wanted to see if we could do that same concept in a much, much larger scale.

I cannot be more thankful to having an AMAZING team of people that came together, & believed in the vision before any of it was even actualized. A massive shoutout to the entire team that made this possible🙌

Looking to expand the team to create & explore more possibilities… who’s in?

Part 2 “PALINGENESIS”

Comment 🌊 & I’ll personally DM you a link to the full video 😌 (I won’t be able to if your account is private)

While people were laughing and mocking AI when it was still generating 6 fingers & extra limbs to create humans, I wanted to see what more could be done.

Why couldn’t it be seen in other ways other than just an error? Why can’t we take advantage of that imperfect nature, to create a setting where the extra limbs and bodies molding into each other could be seen more as a value than a shortcoming!?

What if we could create a dance in real life so that the perfection in our world could give value to the imperfection in the AI world, and for the perfection in the AI world could shine value back to the imperfections in our practical world?

These were some of the thoughts I had a couple years ago when AI was still in its infancy.

To be continued…
