“Latent matter #1”, Infinite art installation hallucinated by a neural network (NFT VIDEO)
Latent spaces are an intriguing avenue in AI, wherein abstract multi-dimensional spaces serve as a framework for encoding a meaningful internal representation of externally observed reality. It is trhough these spaces that AI creativity manifests itself, generating entirely new realities based on a phenomenological interpretation of the physical world, crafted via patterns derived from extensive data observations.
What is the meaning of art when latent spaces can elaborate upon patterns of reality, concepts, and matter with such complexity? Is it the human artist or does the latent space itself possess the power to create?
Is it about talent or latent?
Nevertheless, the mere ability to endlessly generate new reality via latent spaces serves as a powerful tool to explore the frontiers of aesthetics.
In this sense, the artist plays a pivotal role in establishing the territory of exploration within these abstract dimensions, governing the succession of appearances via the principle of the series. By keeping the consistency of the voyage, the artist ensures that the exploration does not lose its bearings and becomes too generic in nature. For, if the existence of something is infinitely generic, that thing simply doesn’t exist, because merges in the mere concept of existence. Thus, there must be a law, a guiding principle that navigates this infinite aesthetic voyage.
From the depths of immateriality, I stated a law of latent materiality’s manifestation. And now, a neural network’s infinite art installation hunts reality.
