A new tourist art attraction will be born in Los Angeles, California, and the world's first artificial intelligence art museum, Dataland, will open in 2025. Dataland Museum is developed and curated by the well-known AI algorithm artist Refik Anadol. Refik Anadol has taught in the Media Design Department of the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) for many years. He is good at analyzing images with AI big data and creating digital artworks through deep learning and algorithms.
The Dataland Museum is located within The Grand LA Hotel and occupies approximately 20,000 square feet. There will be four art galleries in Dataland, and some of the collections displayed in the art galleries will be auctioned on the blockchain.
The Grand LA hotel is located in Los Angeles's Downtown LA, near Little Tokyo and the Museum of Contemporary Art, Los Angeles (MOCA). Downtown Los Angeles is a slum area in Los Angeles. It has long had poor security and frequent crimes at night. Recently, the city government has been actively revitalizing this area and transforming it into a new arts and performance center.
Anadol said in an interview that Dataland is a living museum, which means that the images generated by Pixels and Voxels algorithms will "come alive" and become dynamic fluids and musical rhythms. Anadol has its own AI training model called Large Nature Mode (LNM), which uses open source public images and data to train machine models. Anadol is good at training AI to generate new artworks using existing data. He will use millions of images and audio files from the Smithsonian Institution and the Natural History Museum in London to create digital art. Dataland's other selling points include a partnership with Google to develop carbon-reducing energy sources beyond fossil fuels.
Long-term partnership between Refik Anadol and Nvidia
Anadol is Nvidia's long-term AI artist. Anadol operates using Omniverse, Picasso software, DGX deep learning system and A 6000 graphics unit under Nvidia's artificial intelligence ecosystem. The computational art generated by Anadol Studio was demonstrated at the NVIDIA GTC 2024 conference where Jensen Huang spoke. With the blessing of AI godfather Huang Renxun, Anadol’s value has risen with the tide.
Anadol's Unsupervised series will be exhibited at the Museum of Contemporary Art in New York in 2022. At that time, AI generative art creation caught up with the craze of artificial intelligence and NFT, and the discussion was very intense, making him the first and most famous generative artist in the world. Unsupervised uses 138,000 archived images from the Museum of Modern Art in New York to generate new images. This series is the first generative artwork collected by MOMA and was also completed with the sponsorship of Nvidia.
