Intro

This is an AI-powered memory installation. Due to technical and equipment limitations, it cannot become a real-time form based on visual presentation. The story script is powered by AI, and the artist uses constant questions to figure out her identity and destiny in this utopia. This is also the origin of the project name “Utopia Decoding.” The pictures generated by Stable Diffusion floating in the 3D environment are Utopia fragments generated based on the story. Player can use the x-box controller to visit the scene, and when they reach the corresponding picture, the corresponding memory fragment will be triggered. But collecting memory fragments is not the purpose, because this is not a game. The artist aims to create fantasy worlds that break time and space and create an order out of chaos. Both the project experience and the artist's creative journey are highly experimental and involve some loneliness caused by relinquishing creative control. This may be in line with the future AI world.
