Sentient State // The Sound of Pixels
Exploring the notion of machine evolution towards a sentient state, enabling synthetic entities to experience feelings and sensations like human beings.
Harnessing the power of an ensemble of generative tools the visuals and music were created portraying sentient machines performing a conscious dance with mindful movement and authentic self-expression and self-discovery, a celebration of singularity day.
Keeping the generated frames raw I felt put an emphasis on the beauty of imperfection and furthermore acting as a timestamp to the current state and fleeting moment in the evolution of generative neural networks which are exponentially evolving. The music was generated with two generative models, an image to text model analysing the visuals converting them into written descriptive words, then utilising a text to music model generating sound based upon the text prompt output from the prior model, well fit for the title of this exhibition, The Sound of Pixels.
