This work draws inspiration from Lewis Carroll's famous children's novel, "Alice in Wonderland" (1865). As a child, I had a deep personal connection with this globally renowned book. In this artwork, I utilize NFT technology to immortalize personal memories and fragments of those memories on the blockchain.
To begin, I created square images using Midjourney (AI), carefully curating them based on my recollections of books and anime from my childhood. These square images were then expanded to a 16:9 aspect ratio using Generative Fill, an AI-powered feature in Adobe Photoshop Beta. The 2D images were subsequently transformed into 3D (point cloud) and animated using TouchDesigner, a node-based software for visual coding.
One fascinating aspect of blockchain technology is its ability to document the current state of technology. NFTs and AI are relatively new advancements, and I believe they will continue to evolve in remarkable ways in the future. It is incredibly exciting to consider how the present will be viewed from the future and how these technologies will be perceived and incorporated.
