CRYST-AI-LS are minerals from another world who have found themselves stranded on Earth, their planet of origin shattered and destroyed by an imbalance in natural energies between light and dark. Most humans know nothing of these spiritual rocks. They're invisible to others and can only talk telepathically with creatures who share their powers. Can you hear them?

An experimental art series between human interaction and artificial intelligence.

A quasar citrine from another galaxy with ultra-rare powers of prosperity fell to earth. It was unable to return home due to the fact that it had been damaged by cosmic rays during its journey here. It is now trapped in a crystal prison where it is kept alive by its own power source: A Quasar which has been dormant for thousands of years until the arrival of this alien rock on Earth. The Quasar will awaken when Citrine's power source runs out, causing it to be released into space again.

An experimental series using stylegan, augmented with clip guided diffusion. Descriptions guided by AI as well.
