The animated images and computer games created for this visualization are based on the architecture of Vilnius Town Hall and the city’s seven hundred years of history. Creators from VILNIUS TECH, Cologne Academy of Media Arts, Technical University of Cologne, and Tampere University of Applied Sciences have combined them with the cultural memory learned by artificial intelligence systems that have processed billions of images from the internet. Sometimes Vilnius is addressed directly through popular images and themes, sometimes experimentally and abstractly. The work reflects the creative synthesis of well-known designers and visualizers, using the achievements of modern information technologies, whose image-generation capabilities still need to be fully explored.
