The video artwork series is an expression of more than 200 million nature-related images from the internet. These images are processed using quantum computing software developed by the google AI quantum research team together with a supercomputer that has been programmed with machine-learning algorithms. The resulting real-time video can be considered both an alternate dimension of the natural world and a radical visualization of digitized memories of nature. More->>
