AI Art by Kevin Mack

I use AI for cultivating emergence in my creative process. Emergence refers to the appearance of new properties or behaviors that emerge from the interactions between the parts of a system in which the parts cannot account for the properties or behaviors that emerge. Emergence is the essential ingredient in all creative processes, from the subatomic to the astronomic. I've explored emergence in physical paintings and sculptures, and digital works using procedural modeling, artificial life, rule-based systems, and other generative processes. Generative AI provides another powerful way to employ emergence in my creative process. Using emergence lets me discover my work as well as create it.

These images were created using a variety of generative AI neural networks in combination with digital painting, compositing, and processing in an iterative process to produce high resolution images and large format pigment prints on cotton rag.
No artist names, works, or artistic styles were referenced in the prompts used in the production of these images.
