Abstract paintings Using Artificial Intelligence

ILLUSTRATION BY BILL MORRIS

What is the line between an abstract artist making paintings and a cartographer making maps? Add in a little artificial intelligence and the line between art, science, and cartography becomes inextricably blurred.

This Cartographer Turns Images of Earth Into Abstract Art

The image above is what happens when you take a satellite photo of Earth and use an artificial intelligence program to give it a makeover in the style of an early 20th-century painter. Pretty trippy, right? It's just one of many remarkable images recently posted to Instagram by Bill Morris, a cartographer at Faraday, a data analytics company in Burlington, Vermont.

Fascinating perspective on the intersection of art, science, and cartography! AI is truly transforming how we think about abstract paintings, turning them into a blend of creativity and data. The line between these fields becomes more fluid, offering a new realm of possibilities. It’s exciting to imagine where this fusion of technology and art will take us!

We truly are living in a new world. Who knows what all this AI will bring. However, I like to think there will always be a place for the handmade object or image.
