My Brain on Drugs
A Playform Studio Exhibition by Sturec
"My Brain on Drugs" is a series of original works produced by artist Sturec using Playform AI. In this unique collaboration between human and machine, Sturec imagines what her brain might look like on various stimulants and hallucinogens. Integrating Playform AI, Sturec uploaded hundreds of MRI scans of her brain, and then trained the images to create new artworks applying different styles developed by the artist. While satirical at its core, "My Brain on Drugs" is not only a subjective representation of the artist's experience, but also an objective experience for its viewers to interpret. Although "My Brain on Drugs" references a human experience of alternate states, it also uses AI technology to translate these states through complex visuals. The output is 16 videos and 24 images that comprise the entire series. Only one of each work will be made available and certified as such through an NFT certificate via Verisart, which also includes a 4000x4000 digital file for high-resolution printing and digital signature by the artist.
This is the second NFT exhibition by Playform Studio, following the success of its first exhibition with artist Mattia Cuttini, "Defined Undefined." The first series sold out on SuperRare with buyers including Metapurse. Playform is a no-code AI, based on the research of Dr. Ahmed Elgammal, the founder of the Art and Artificial Intelligence Lab at Rutgers University. The studio hosts a highly-selective residency program, in which it invites one artist per month to receive unlimited usage of its AI and direct access to its engineering team.
