In artificial intelligence 'Latent Space' refers to a mathematical space which maps what a neural network has learnt from training images. Once it has been trained it understands all images of trees as existing in a specific area, and all images of birds in another. The neural network can be reverse engineered to create fake images from these coordinates. But what if it was given a new path to travel between these recognisable points, instead moving through the in-between space? 'Latent Space' is a video snap-shot of an AI algorithm in its infancy trained using 14.2 million photographs continuously producing new images. For this iteration, a new soundscape by The Analog Girl was commissioned in partnership with MSCTY x Sculpture in the City.
