Timelines in Counterpoint is a study for my story Danta in Black, to appear in The Purpose of Reality (MeerkatPress, 2022). Are we connected to the earth? When timelines shift, the destruction of the planet might come and go, but reality is not science fiction. (Click image for larger version.)

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