Using StyleGAN2 ADA to capture the machine’s “hallucinations” of MoMA’s vast range of modern visual expression in a multi-dimensional space, Refik Anadol Studio trained a unique AI model with subsets of the collection, creating embeddings in 1024 dimensions. When idle and unsupervised, the AI re-generates the MoMA archive, constructing new aesthetic image and color combinations through unique lines drawn by algorithmic connections.
The artwork comes with an artist-signed 3D physical certificate with backup, a custom computer with software, and a Samsung 75" QLED 4 display, to be shipped from the artist’s studio to the first collector in early 2022. This 1/1 unique video artwork will be collected through a highest-bid auction.
