Refik Anadol's Quantum Memories.
The work is on display at National Gallery of Victoria, Melbourne as part of Triennial 2020. If you live in Melbourne, I urge you to visit NGV and experience the amazing works of artists from all over the world. The exhibition is open and its FREE till 18th April, 2021.
About the work :
Refik Anadol’s Quantum memories, 2020, draws upon a dataset of more than two hundred million nature-related images from the internet, which are processed using quantum computing software developed by the Google AI Quantum research team in combination 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 visualisation of our digitised memories of nature.
Anadol’s arresting visuals and accompanying audio are composed in collaboration with a generative algorithm enabled by artificial intelligence (AI) and quantum computing - a new form of computing that exploits the unusual physics of the subatomic world - turning the visual data that flows around us every day into an artwork that represents our collective memory of nature.
Through the work, the artist encourages us to imagine the potential of this experimental computer technology and the immense opportunities it presents for the future of art and design.

I had to mute the actual audio to avoid the background noise.
