Cavern – Animated Digital Storyboard

by Leave a Comment

At the heart of TV and Film Production is a good story. Storyboard Artists are essential to map out the proper sequence of shots required to tell that story. This is one of many aspects of production that is at risk of disappearing with the rise of AI.

This animated digital collage was comprised of several components. All of which were assembled under the guidance of human creativity. No AI was used, because no AI was required. In order to tell stories about humans, it is imperative that you are one in the first place. If you don’t have a body or a soul, then you are unqualified to tell our tales. Even if you are prompted by a human to emulate our art, in the end, that’s all it is – an emulation.

These collective expressions were inspired by other aspects of humanity. There is no formula for it. You cannot calculate it. It comes from a place within the subconscious that AI simply don’t have.

This piece was prompted by a need to make something that a machine could never come up with. Designed in a horizontal format with manually animated components.

BrainBlots – The Intersection of Neuroscience and Digital Art

Since I bought my first Mac in 1993, all I ever wanted to do was make digital art. Long before there was ever even a market for it I was fascinated with how far digital art could go. At the NFT Goat Pop up digital art show here in Toronto, I found out just how far.

After venturing into the basement and down a small unassuming corridor, I met the BrainBlots Team. Yasmeen, Andrew and Ali are a trio of young, stylish U of T students with a diverse range of interests from art to neuroscience to philosophy and everything in between. Before I knew just what was happening, I was putting on an EEG headset and watching my thoughts come to life right before my eyes.
