The visuals are a series of AI-generated artworks created by Polyptech (Poposki's creative alter ego in the Metaverse ) through text-to-image synthesis utilizing a neural network. The text is an AI-generated poem co-written with Poposki, based on the text of Henry David Thoreau's reflection upon simple living in/with nature, "Walden".
