Artist Statement:
For the project Son of a Serendipitous Glitch I found that most of the random quotes and phrases I saved were related to nature and generated AI images related to natural landscapes. By looking at the AI generated landscapes it is easy to tell that they are AI generated since they appear very unrealistic and miss the imperfect and random details of nature. By looking at the landscapes and how they appear glitched the mood is very dystopian and in my mind I imagine a future without nature where humans rely on technology to produce realistic but too perfectly manufactured images of nature for their comfort. Some of the images such as the ones with the evil or devilish figure standing in the desert also hint at the apocalyptic mood of the glitches and in my eyes symbolize the evil of mankind manifested into a single entity that is left alone on earth which is now a barren desert due to pollution and global warming. The glitched images of mountains and unfamiliar landscapes also brings to mind a future prediction that technology and science may show us which is how earth will look thousands of years into the future when humans are no longer around and the Earth’s landscape has shifted into new mountains and plains we no longer recognize. Either way the project Son of a Serendipitous Glitch had me ponder about the future because I had to utilize AI generators to create art, the simplicity and ease of the generators had me questioning the future of art and technology which led to the theme of what will happen to our natural world in the future.
