Unsupervised is part of Machine Hallucinations, Refik Anadol Studios ongoing project exploring data aesthetics based on collective visual memories. The exhibition processes 138,151 pieces of metadata from the vast collection of The Museum of Modern Art in the mind of a machine. Using StyleGAN2 ADA to capture the machines transformative hallucinations of modern art in a multi-dimensional space, Anadol trains a unique AI model with subsets of the archive of MoMAs collection of artworks, creating embeddings in 1024 dimensions. The sorted image datasets are then clustered into thematic categories to better understand the semantic context of data. This expanding data universe not only represents the interpolation of data as synthesis, but also becomes a latent cosmos in which hallucinatory potential arises from a novel form of artistic creativity interpreting MoMAs unparalleled collection of modern and contemporary art.

Feral File  Unsupervised

Unsupervised  Data Universe  MoMA is a global AI data painting that simulates a latent walk among the museums digitized collection. The artist and his team used MoMA archives to construct the seven dimensions of the artwork: x, y, z, r, g, b, and time. It combines Anadols vision of handling data within a universe that it creates for itself with his approach to data visualizations latent space as a locus for never-ending, self-generating contemplation. Researcher Leland McInnes, the inventor of the UMAP technique that Anadol has used for Unsupervised  Data Universe  MoMA wrote, I have always found beauty in mathematics, but to see what Refik has done with mathematics and these algorithms to create art is something else again: bringing together rich threads of information and data to weave amazing visual works. I never imagined that my work in mathematics could have such far reaching impacts.

Infected Mallaccan Warrior with their bodies, colors, and shape changed. Their minds are no longer their own. They seek only power, revenge, and "The Prophet." They fought battles after battles, conducting the Supreme Forbidden Magic Arts one after another until each of their artifacts shines bright and turns them into another being, into "Repus."

An Important Memory for Humanity is Refik Anadols groundbreaking limited-edition NFT collection that utilizes data from the worlds first all-civilian space flight. The collection presents a series of poetic data sculptures and paintings of the Inspiration4 mission. 
	
For this collection, Anadol and his team interpreted data from SpaceX and NASA-funded research institute TRISH (Translational Research Institute for Space Health) on the effects of space travel on the human body. TRISH conducts cutting-edge research into the impact that the conditions in space have on the astronauts, with an attempt to reduce the health risks of venturing deeper into the universe.

Anadols one-of-a-kind NFT collection not only reveals an insight into the challenges of space travel, but also contributes to a meaningful and purposeful cause to help solve critical health issues. 30% of all NFT sales will be donated to St Jude Childrens Research Hospital.
In collaboration with //CreativeWorkStudio.

INSPIRATI4N

What would you see and feel if you could look at someones heartbeat recorded in space? TRISHs partnership with the recent Inspiration4 flight, the worlds first all-civilian mission into orbit, collected raw data from a series of experiments to discover what effects space had on the human body.

This dynamic data painting uses the heartbeat information collected from the 4 astronauts during the space mission by TRISH, hoping to bring more awareness to various health issues humans encounter both on Earth and in space. This artwork will dynamically change on the blockchain to show the hearbeats of the different INSPIRATION4 astronauts over time. FIRST DYNAMIC NFT by Refik Anadol.

HEARTBEAT DATA PAINTING #1574

Emerging from the Studios signature aesthetic of fluid dynamics, the T+/- Series intertwines collective memories from humanity and machines. It offers multi-channel interpretations of the video recordings of the three key moments of the mission: Lift Off, Entry Burn and Splashdown.

The collection suggests that in Anadols artistic vision, the relationship between dreams and imagination can take their most creative and innovative forms by focusing on the feelings and situations associated with traveling to unknown territories.

We've created unique "Quantum AI Data Paintings" using quantum bit strings generated from Google Quantum AI team's beyond classical experiment together with a Generative Adversarial Network machine learning algorithm that was developed during the production of Quantum Memories.

The data collection consists of 200 million raw images of landscapes around the world, including all the national parks in the US.

By utilizing custom procedural coherent noise implementations and beyond classical measurements of computing surflets, we generated 1000 unique Quantum AI Data Paintings inspired by the natural world. Each painting is computed with a unique quantum bit string!

The images incorporate earthly pigments, shapes, and patterns that we associate with our sensory experiences, while paying homage to the Earth's unbounded poetic sublimity.
