I believe to achieve the best results we need to continuously question and challenge our own assumptions, so I approach design by always staying curious and exploring without limits.
An example of this methodology is a study I carried out asking: how AI understands genetics? This project subverted the filter app FaceApp into an image generator rather than an editing tool. By feeding the software with minimum information it was forced to create autonomously by filling in the missing data.
Transitions of FaceApp generating faces through the application of random filters.
The outcome was a series of photorealistic portraits featuring people who don't exist.
I then applied this approach of creating images by feeding AI with reduced information to a commercial project. Tomorrow’s Dawn Quartet, a band, asked me to create an artwork for their Zredzred Remixes. The album is a reinterpretation of their Desert album by other artists.
Original album artwork sliced into nine images and downsampled into 16-bit individual files.
Series of asbtractions generated by running the low resolution files through image upscaling AI.
Album artwork formed by the 9 abstractions.
