The Rewound World is a study for my scifi poetry of the same name, to appear in The Purpose of Reality (Meerkat Press, 2022). (Click on image for larger size.)

The artwork was evolved with the visual evolution engine (VEE), my software that seeks unexpected realms, and CYNDE, cyclic nonlinear desaturation, rather than using standard AI techniques to mimic existing art. ALISA, Adaptive Layered Image Synthesis, was used for the figures.
