Exhibition at Miraikan, the National Museum of Emerging Science and Innovation (Tokyo, Japan)

Generated Photos were featured at the permanent exhibition Digitally Natural – Naturally Digital that explores a fine line between the real and simulated world, our perception of it, and the new questions it provokes.

The computers are now overflowing in the world, and the resolution and processing power of the world they create is exceeding the limits of human perception and intelligence. In the near future, the difference between original nature and computer-created nature will fade away, a "new nature" will appear for us in the future, and we will be unaware of the differences. Imagine that the vast natures both inside and outside the computer are integrated, then think about how our view of nature and the world will change, and what questions will arise.

The AI-generated faces are an integral part of the exhibition. Being human photos and AI creations at the same time, they spotlight the ambiguity of AI technologies and help unfold the idea of a self-optimized world with spreading AI technologies.
