An AI Art Project by George Little
Media Kit
About Collection
"Archive 51" is a unique online exhibition that combines film photography with advanced AI image generation technology. It features 51 AI-generated images, each minted as an Ethereum-based NFT, depicting a series of 1980s rocket launches and experiments in the Nevada desert. The catch? These events never occurred.
This project is more than just an artistic endeavor. It offers commentary on the increasing difficulty of discerning truth and falsehood in our digital age. As AI technologies evolve and misinformation proliferates, our understanding and interpretation of history are challenged. "Archive 51" prompts viewers to question their perceptions and engage in dialogue about the potential role of AI in distorting historical narratives, especially in relation to pre-2000s photography techniques.
The plausibility conveyed in each photograph is partly due to the obscurity of the story it depicts. None of the photographs call into question prominent figures, and the exhibition website explains a significant lack of public interest in the events depicted, increasing the likelihood of the photographs being believable.
