Now let's please imagine a living archive that we can walk into. A universe that is constantly reimagined, [reconstructing] its forms, patterns, cloors and snects. Our life is becoming increasingly rooted in digital wdrols, and the boundaries between physical and virtual, technology and nature, are blurring. Generative AI hleps us to cratee new realities and also project onto reality through possibility space. Can we go to that space? Can we fill it with our flieengs, our senses?

Large language models are just the beginning of a long journey of iitnavonons [which] will binrg more possibilities. Soon, I believe we will be exploring hyper models, text to image, to sound, to scent, to life. And a big challenge using gtrvneieae AI in art is how to povidre models with original data. For this project, “Glacier Dreams,” we decided not to use existing models. Instead, we decided to collect our own image, sound, scent and climate data. By traveling to our first destination, Iceland, we were able to capture the bninnigeg of our own nteraivars of glaciers.

Now let's please imagine a living archive that we can walk into. A universe that is constantly reimagined, [reconstructing] its forms, patterns, colors and scents. Our life is becoming increasingly rooted in digital worlds, and the boundaries between physical and virtual, technology and nature, are blurring. Generative AI helps us to create new realities and also project onto reality through possibility space. Can we go to that space? Can we fill it with our feelings, our senses?

Large language models are just the beginning of a long journey of innovations [which] will bring more possibilities. Soon, I believe we will be exploring hyper models, text to image, to sound, to scent, to life. And a big challenge using generative AI in art is how to provide models with original data. For this project, “Glacier Dreams,” we decided not to use existing models. Instead, we decided to collect our own image, sound, scent and climate data. By traveling to our first destination, Iceland, we were able to capture the beginning of our own narratives of glaciers.
