Isles upon Deemed Rivers & Other Wonders

by Daïm Aggott-Hönsch

An ode to serenity and found beauty by Daïm Aggott-Hönsch, Isles upon Deemed Rivers & Other Wonders (IDROW) is a 500 piece artist-curated algorithmic collection that subverts visual identity and intent by reorganizing the pixels of its source images to produce tranquil and mystical abstracts imbued with new semantic context arising from their natural appeal to the human predilection for pareidolia.

In order to produce the series, Daïm applied his unconventional pixel-sorting algorithm to a collection of source images generated via Stable Diffusion, an AI image synthesis system, thereby radically transforming them into peaceful, often naturalistic images that disavow their origins and instead present as islands, monuments, and apparitions of a world that is at once alien and yet comfortingly familiar.
