I wanted to show an ether crystal - a genesis block - sprouting and sparking all this organic flourishing of life, stories, ideas. There are a multitude of colours to show the diversity of our beings. I drew the design by hand and was inspired by french enamelware, which is beautiful yet hard-wearing, and the designs of William Morris - British artist, poet, and socialist activist.

For this I used VQGAN+clip which is a text to image converter. The term being used around this is now being called "promptism" ie: the words one uses to prompt the GAN are close to the artist. I took Rory's words and created several versions, tweaking the prompt as I went, until I ended up with one I was happy with through a conversation with the machine.
