AI Movies are Right here: Chris Ianuzzi Drops His Second AI-created Music Video for His Single ‘Lonesome Freeway Famous person’ [Video]

A YEDM favourite by now or his endlessly fascinating experimental preparations and chaotic variety each in his musical compositions and his multimedia movies, Chris Ianuzzi is now diving head-first into an space many artists are simply beginning to poke round: AI artwork and movies. Since his acclaimed Maze LP was dropped single by single ending in April of this yr, Ianizzu hinted he can be doing an identical development with movies, and he’s formally into that mission with the discharge on November 4th with “Lonesome Freeway Famous person,” the second video from the Maze mega-album.

The one “March of Insanity,” launched as a particular video that was the end result of Maze, was really the primary video on which Ianuzzi and his group utilized AI expertise, each within the animation and the morphing of the faces. “Lonesome Freeway Famous person” is the primary, nevertheless, that’s virtually completely A.I.-created. Made in collaboration with the identical graphic artists who labored on “March of Insanity,” İlke Köse and  Ethem Serkan Sökmen, this video utilized each Disco Diffusion and Steady Diffusion AI picture technology. Between the 2 strategies, the group created a video that feels each surreal and hyperreal, with trippy, abstrac varieties morphing into photorealistic characters and vice versa.

The inspiration for this, based on Ianuzzi, was a kind of space-themed model of The Street Warrior. 

My preliminary thought for a video was a ‘Street Warrior’-type video with a beat up automotive on a desert freeway. After I thought of this and noticed what Serkan andİlke did with AI in making the video “for March of Insanity,” I assumed it was time to seek for one thing totally different. I assumed, let’s put the character in house and make the journey Cosmic. I shared my ideas with them and off they went.

The video appears to seize the sense of lonliness paired with surprise Ianuzzi was making an attempt to connote within the observe as nicely, with the extra formless visuals being stunning and awe-inspiring however in the end chilly and sterile, particularly as soon as the POV shifts to the human varieties. Wearing house fits and nonetheless created by AI as they’re, the humanness of their motions and play on the “desert freeway in house” is a stark distinction to all of the viewer has seen to date. Regardless of these pictures not being practically as spectacular because the extremely styled “house” pictures, there’s extra of a connection to them than anything within the video, and it appears far too quick a clip.

The video ends with a query, as a warped photorealistic spaceship tries to construct and rebuild istelf again and again inside this hyperreal however clearly not actual house: will we ever have the ability to absolutely coexist with AI, or, for that matter, another types of intelligence, whether or not terrestrial or additional? It stays to be seen at this level, however the reply is probably not too far off because the technolog continues to develop. Within the meantime Ianuzzi sees all of it as the identical query: once we continually attain out for extra, whether or not it’s AI, house, and even simply searching for companionship on a desert higway, are we simply serving to extra absolutely isolate ourselves? That’s a extra everlasting query, and it appears the “Lonesome Freeway Famous person” doesn’t have the reply fairly but.
