Latent Field #35
The card motifs have been individually generated with the help of artificial intelligence. At the award ceremony, they become part of an interactive work of art.
About artificial intelligence
To generate the images, Paul Bethge used a publicly available artificial intelligence called "Stable Diffusion". By means of interpolations in the so-called "Latent Field" the artist creates a contextual and structural proximity between the images. The result is the fictitious conflation of the duality of photons - the property of existing both as particles or as waves.
