Alan Ki Aankhen by Fahad Karim

_Alan Ki Aankhen_ is an exploration of other-worldly cityscapes in the visual aesthetic of Fahads distinct style with pen and paper. The title, translated as _Alans Eyes_, alludes to Alan Turings machine intelligence test - a thought experiment foreshadowing a moment in which we can no longer differentiate between the real and the artificial. Though first proposed in 1950, the topic feels especially relevant today, as even our creative practices are being carried by shifting technological tides.

The algorithms and decision-making encoded into this generative art project intentionally imitate Fahads approach on traditional mediums - composition rules, textures, and overall themes. The visual elements are inspired by Fahads memories from his nomadic life. Youll find intricate windows from Rajasthan, massive Egyptian pyramids rising from the horizon, a density of civilization only seen in New York, and the moon - a comforting and shared sight no matter where you stand.
