Refik Anadol is a contemporary digital artist, known for his experiments with data and AI work. The artist reaches new heights in his career with a new exhibit at MoMA, titled 'Unsupervised,' that utilizes artificial intelligence.
The colossal AI artwork is breathtaking and ground-breaking. Measuring 24' x 24', the display occupies a good chunk of the gallery's lobby and "renders an infinite animated flow of images, each of them dreamed up as you watch by an AI model fed by the museum’s entire collection of artwork." As the museum's archive is quite sizable, the AI artwork brings together influences of 180.000 works.
Refik Anadol describes this work as "a portal to a new alternate universe created by some AI god that acts on its own volition."
