Machine Hallucinations: Space is an-going AI research of data aesthetics at the RAS Lab based on collective visual memories of space. Since 2016, Anadol and his team have been using custom algorithms to train machine intelligence in processing these vast datasets and unfolding unrecognized layers of our external realities. In this gallery, they invite the audience to reflect on the relationship between technology, AI, and space explorations by viewing how the machine intelligence hallucinates after “seeing” millions of space images taken by the Hubble, ISS, and MRO telescopes.
For this AI data painting, the machine generates data universe of geographical hallucinations in multiple dimensions based on Hubble telescope’s findings. Hubble has shown scientists galaxies in all stages of evolution, including galaxies that were around when the universe was still young, helping them understand how galaxies form. This piece pays homage to such a long journey of significant discoveries that Hubble accomplished and explores how knowledge can be experienced spatially and dynamically. Fluid dynamics has been a source of artistic inspiration for Anadol since the inception of Machine Hallucinations.
The artwork comes with an artist-signed 3D physical certificate with backup, a 75’’ digital canvas, a custom computer and software.
