AI Reimagines Charles and Ray Eames’ Iconic 1977 Cosmic Zoom

Art director Adam Pickard tweets an AI reimagination of Charles and Ray Eames’ iconic short Powers of Ten (1977). The film depicts the relative scale of the universe by order of magnitude based on a factor of 10, first zooming out from Earth, then in to a sub-atomic level. Whereas the filmmakers (masterfully) mixed footage and illustration, Pickard had OpenAI’s DALL-E 2 meditate on 57 text prompts—which are included—and apply the new inpainting feature to fill the gaps.
