The image is a frame from the video Ancient Mars IIA: the Apocalypse, and it has a before/after slider. The original image is a composite with background of Mars from the NASA Rover. The slider shows the work of the visual evolution engine, my software that seeks unimagined realms. I don’t let it go out of the house unless it’s accompanied by a responsible adult. Obviously.

The figures, evolved separately, were created with ALISA, adaptive layered image automation.
