Embark on a unique and captivating exploration of the first book of the Bible, Genesis, with Mike Denman's "Ai Art Genesis." This groundbreaking project ingeniously combines the ancient narrative of Genesis with cutting-edge artificial intelligence-generated art, resulting in a visually stunning and thought-provoking experience.
In the rapidly evolving landscape of the 21st century, the convergence of artificial intelligence and artistic creation has become a symbol of both division and allure. Mike Denman's artistic endeavor goes beyond the conventional, as what was once a creation becomes the creator through the transformative power of AI-generated art. This collection of images, is a result of the English translations from Young's Literal Translation of the Bible (1889).
Drawing inspiration from his diverse spiritual journey, including experiences as a Secular Humanist with a Wicca and Universalist Unitarianism upbringing, Denman recognizes the common thread that unites humanity across various belief systems. "Ai Art Genesis" is a celebration of that shared humanity, transcending religious affiliations and welcoming readers from all walks of life.
This visually rich project features illustrations of Days 1-6 from the first book of Genesis, accompanied by text sourced from Young's Literal Translation of the Bible (1862 & 1898). Day 7 stands unique with a lack of image, prompting reflection on the significance of that intentional omission. There is a deus ex machina almost when you witness the series of images as they flow through the stanza. Each taking on the literal meaning of the literal translation, culminating in a cacophony of cultural collisions - which is exactly what Jesus would have wanted, amiright?
Denman's bibliography includes the Young's Literal Translation of the Bible (1898), providing a historical and literary foundation for this artistic endeavor. The awe-inspiring images are created using the DREAM AI application by WOMBO, showcasing the limitless possibilities when artificial intelligence collaborates with human creativity.
