Description

Generative cities: under the waves project is the programmed imagination of our world swept by the powerful force of nature. It is motivated by human curiosity about the unknown, whether it is the unforeseeable future or the uninhabited latent space of the learned visual representations. The artificial neural network was trained on two collections representing different visual domains and then allowed to create the non-existent connections between night cityscapes and free-flowing ocean tides, thus allowing the machine to imagine the transformation on its own, enriched with the powerful movement and concept shift. The work prompts us to reflect upon the limitations of the human race with regard to such strong yet opposing forces like artificial intelligence and nature itself. It also provokes a conversation about the impending doom of the environmental crisis.
