New edition in my neural net generated PFP series, exploring the splintering of identity in digital environments. Here I use colours from the newly-launched Pantone sLABS metaverse-ready palette. .
The piece is made by breeding a digital character into a separate digital environment using neural nets, sometimes multiple times. The process produces artefacts which I magnify. I then trace the contours produced by the neural net by hand. In this case I'm also following a new palette.
From Pantone's press release: 'Inspired by the natural world, the sLABS color palette is non-conforming by design. It is a grouping of hues whose experimental approach leads us into a new frontier. Comprised of a cosmic blue, playful pink coral, faded lilac, grounding burnt orange, dramatic charcoal black, and a quiet creamy beige. It is a palette of color whose expressions of optimism, comfort, and confidence create a strong foundation as we look to the future.'
