AI-gegenereerde video voor Type O Negative

Leestijd: 2 minuten

Peter Steele is dood. Jimi Hendrix is dood. Kurt Cobain is dood. Bon Scott en Dimebag Darrel zijn ook dood. Die laatste inspireerde Peter Steele destijds voor dit nummer en nu heeft Type Of Negative een video voor ‘Halloween In Heaven’.

De video voor dit nummer van Type O Negative is geen gewone video. De track is namelijk voorzien van een door AI gegenereerde beelden. Nieuwe beelden van de nu getoonde ‘cast’ kunnen immers ook niet meer geschoten worden. Johnny Kenny zegt daarover: “An artificial intelligence video for an artificially intelligent band!”. Check dat resultaat hier.

Corinne Larre (Twisted Hooves Studio) die dus AI gebruikte om tot deze video te komen zegt:
“When Nuclear Blast asked me to make this video using artificial intelligence, I was eager to explore the thousand possibilities offered by this new technology. I ended up using a combination of two platforms: one that generated images and the other transforming said images into video.“

“The lyrics left the field open to a lot of experimentation, leading to this universe both eerie and kitsch, which I hope pays homage to the band. The real challenge was the integration of legendary artists into this imagery. It’s hard to explain to the A.I. the small details that make them unique as humans. In the end, hundreds, even thousands of iterations must have been made for this video!”

“As an artist, I think it is necessary to remain humble when using artificial intelligence as the topic has quite rightly caused some ethical debate in the creative world. In my opinion, these creations should not be seen as artistic works in their own right, but as the first steps of a technology that will revolutionize audiovisual creation in the coming years.“
